Abstract
Objective To evaluate MR urography (MRU) in displaying the obstruction site, diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the obstructive lesions of the ureter. Methods Preoperative MRU was studied retrospec-tively in 51 cases proved by clinical practice, surgery and pathology. Results The rate of accurate localization reached 100%, and the rate accurate differentiating the benign and malignant lesions was 91%. Conclusion MRU is valuable in the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the obstructive lesions of ureter.
