Dr. Nisha Lakhani, Dr. Jay Mehta, Dr. Dharita Shah

Abstract :

The urinary tract consisting of kidneys, ureter and bladder is prone to many diseases ranging from congenital to neoplastic.Commonly employed radiological investigations include X-ray, IVP, ultrasound, CT scan and MRI. Each has its own advantages and limitations.Using multidetector computed tomography (MDCT) scanner, different protocols for scanning can be applied which can be tailored according to patient’s complaints and the suspected pathology and the obtained volumetric data reduces the misregistrationartifacts and respiratory artifacts.It is unsurpassed in evaluating lesions containing fat and calcium.
