The chnical and cystoscopic data in renal tuber- 174 PYELOGRAPHY culosis and pyelitis may be similar yet insufficient for differ-ential diagnosis. The demonstration in the pelvic outlineof deformity peculiar to renal tuberculosis will then be ofconsiderable value. The changes in the pyelogram found to accompany tuber-culosis will be as follows: (1) Dilatation of pelvis; (2) areasof cortical necrosis; (3) stricture in the ureter. In the early stages of renal tuberculosis evidence of theinflammatory process in the outline of the pelvis may be soslight as to be unrecognized. When pelvic deformity be-comes apparent, it may closely simulate that of pyelo-nephritis, and it
