==Overview==

[[Abdominal]] [[Computed tomography|CT scan]] may be helpful in the [[diagnosis]] of renal oncocytoma. Findings on [[Computed tomography|CT scan]] suggestive ofrenal oncocytoma include [[solid]] [[renal]] [[lesion]], [[central]] [[scar]] (stellate [[scar]]), [[Vascularity|hypervascularity]], hypodenseity (most of the time), and [[homogenous]] enhancements.
