Magnetic resonance imaging for paediatric retroperitoneal masses: Diagnostic accuracy of the claw sign.

Published in: SA journal of radiology (2021)
The three tumour-mass interface characteristics investigated are all important characteristics of the claw sign. Intra- and inter-rater reliability is moderate to strong for all characteristics and overall impression of the claw sign. The claw sign is therefore sensitive in the accurate placement of an intra-renal mass but lacks specificity.
