Yellowstone Caldera is one of the largest volcanic systems on Earth, hosting three major caldera-forming eruptions in the past two million years, interspersed with periods of less explosive, smaller-volume eruptions. Caldera-forming eruptions at Yellowstone are sourced by rhyolitic melts stored within the mid- to upper crust. Seismic tomography studies have suggested that a broad region of rhyolitic melt extends beneath Yellowstone Caldera, with an estimated melt volume that is one to four times greater than the eruptive volume of the largest past caldera-forming eruption, and an estimated melt fraction of 6-28 per cent.

Background: Completely endophytic renal tumors (CERT) pose significant challenges due to their anatomical complexity and loss of visual clues about tumor location. A facile scoring model based on three-dimensional (3D) reconstructed images will assist in better assessing tumor location and vascular variations.

Methods: In this retrospective study, 80 patients diagnosed with CERT were included.
