Predictive value of extracellular volume fraction determined using enhanced computed tomography for pathological grading of clear cell renal cell carcinoma: a preliminary study
ECV derived from enhanced CT has the potential to function as an in vivo biomarker for distinguishing between lower- and higher-grade ccRCC. This quantitative measure provides diagnostic value that extends beyond traditional qualitative CT features, offering a more precise and objective assessment of tumor grade.
