ABSTRACT

Follow-up protocols after surgical management of renal cell carcinoma (RCC) lack clear evidence linking the intensity of imaging surveillance to improved outcomes. In this context, we sought to characterize the relationship between intensity of surveillance imaging and cancer-specific survival.
