Patient's question:
What tests can detect urinary tract stones?Doctor's answer:
Hello; it is recommended that you undergo an X-ray examination, as it is an important method for diagnosing kidney and ureteral stones. Combined with excretory or retrograde pyelography, it can determine the location of the stones, whether there is obstruction and the degree of obstruction, whether the contralateral kidney function is good, differentiate calcifications from outside the urinary tract, rule out other lesions in the upper urinary tract, determine the treatment plan, and identify the stone location after treatment.
