In France, a physician is considered liable for a medical error only if the appropriate diagnostic and therapeutic means were not used. The urologist who evaluates a patient is responsible for the diagnosis of renal carcinoma and for assessing the spread of the disease and deciding whether surgery is indicated. The urologist coordinates the various investigations and interprets results in the light of each individual patient's characteristics. In most renal carcinomas, only simple imaging techniques are needed: renal ultrasonography and an intravenous urogram or a CT scan. Further techniques may be required to assess disease spread according to the French Urology Association's Oncology Committee, only abdominal ultrasonography and a chest film are "absolutely required", the other imaging techniques being "desirable" or "optional".
