Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to better tell apart whether kidney tumors are benign (not cancer) or malignant (cancer) based on a biopsy or imaging tests and ask patients how they feel about decisions they make about treatment of their kidney tumor.

The main objectives are:

To estimate and compare the diagnostic accuracy of renal mass biopsy alone, PEER (with renal mass biopsy), and 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT (with renal mass biopsy for hot tumors) to differentiate malignant and benign renal tumors.

To estimate and compare the diagnostic accuracy of renal mass biopsy, PEER (with renal mass biopsy), and 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT (with renal mass biopsy for hot tumors) to differentiate oncocytoma from chromophobe RCC.

Participants will be asked to complete survey questions related to their health and kidney tumor at the start and end of the study. These can be done on paper, electronically, or by telephone.
Detailed Description: The investigators are asking the participant to take part in this research study because they were diagnosed with a kidney tumor. Kidney tumors can be benign (not cancer) or malignant (cancer) and the investigators hope to figure out how to better tell them apart before surgery or other treatment.

The investigators hope to better tell apart whether kidney tumors are benign (not cancer) or malignant (cancer) based on a biopsy or imaging tests and ask patients how they feel about decisions they make about treatment of their kidney tumor.

Biopsy is a standard test to determine if a tumor is cancerous before making a treatment decision.

The imaging test (99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT) the investigators are studying has been studied before and found to help identify benign kidney tumors. It is not approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for imaging kidney tumors. It is FDA approved for use in imaging the heart and breasts. It has been studied for use in parathyroid gland imaging.

The participant will be asked to complete survey questions related to their health and kidney tumor at the start and end of the study. The participant will receive a 99mTc-sestamibi SPECT/CT scan (if they have not had one already) for research purposes. The participant will receive a biopsy of the kidney tumor (if they have not had one already) as part of their routine clinical care. The participant will then receive treatment of the kidney tumor as determined by consultation with their doctor.
