What Does The Soft Tissue Nodule Arising From The Right Ureter Indicate?
Hi. I was told today that I have a soft tissue density nodule arising from the mid right ureter which measures 2.2 cm cranoocaudal and 1.2 cm in greatest axial dimension. The distal ureter is decompressed. Can you tell me what this could mean? I am going to have to see a kidney specialist as my Oncologist told me today.
