showed that renal mass biopsy outperforms the RNS in discriminating between malignant versus benign tumors and low-risk versus high-risk tumors.[sup][19] The RNS was also reported to be a reproducible standardized classification system that quantitates the salient anatomy of renal tumors.[sup][5] A prospective study performed by Matos et al ., which included 71 patients, showed that the RNS was a good method in predicting surgical access route and type of nephrectomy, and the RNS was also associated with OT and WIT, but with weak accuracy.[sup][20] Kriegmair et al .
