University of North Carolina men's basketball coach Roy Williams had a biopsy of the tumor on his left kidney Wednesday at UNC Hospitals. The results of the biopsy indicate it is an oncocytoma (pronounced ON-ko-sigh-TOE-muh), a non-cancerous kidney tumor. Williams had surgery to remove a tumor from his right kidney on September19th, which was also an oncocytoma, often indistinguishable from kidney cancer on x-rays. |

Researchers from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are trying to change that by creating a gargantuan map of what foods Americans are buying and eating.
