46 The types of cost-reimbursement contracts differ in whether the contractor recovers only costs (e.g., cost contracts, cost-sharing contracts) or whether there is some allowance for profit (e.g., cost-plus-fixed-fee contracts, cost-plus-a-percentage-of-cost contracts).8 The various types of incentive contracts are alike in that they provide for the contractor to get (1) a specified base amount and (2) the opportunity to earn additional fees (i.e., incentive or award fees) based upon its performance in meeting cost, schedule, or technical goals under the contract.
1 Kidney cancer category by type of cell affected: 2  Renal cell cancer (carcinoma). 3  Transitional cell cancer (carcinoma). 4  Wilms' tumor-a common childhood kidney tumor.
Tumors of the renal calyces, renal pelvis and ureters start in the layer of tissue that lines the bladder and the upper urinary tract, called the urothelium. Cancer that starts in the urothelium is called urothelial (or transitional cell) cancer. This is the most common type of cancer found in the bladder, as well. Because many of the organs in the urinary system share common cells, cancers found in these organs often look and act alike. Image Â© 2003 Fairman Studios, LLC.
