An introduction to the expanding modality of contrast-enhanced ultrasound is provided, along with basics on contrast agents and technique. The contrast ultrasound findings of multiple renal tumors are reviewed with examples, including clear cell renal cell carcinoma, papillary renal cell carcinoma, chromophobe renal cell carcinoma, other rare renal cell carcinoma subtypes, oncocytoma, upper tract urothelial carcinoma, lymphoma, and angiomyolipoma, followed also by brief discussions of renal infections and pseudolesions.
