A number of findings at abdominal MDCT are associated with the need for surgery and other important surgical outcomes in patients with suspected SBO. Overall radiologist impression of need for surgical intervention was a better predictor than any clinical or laboratory parameter.

CT texture features were significantly associated with important histopathologic features in small renal cancers. These non-invasive measures can be performed retrospectively and may provide useful information when determining follow-up and treatment of small renal cancers.

Junior radiologists performed as well as SR in predicting surgical outcomes on MDCT in patients with suspected SBO.
