CECT Scan KUB (Kidney, Ureter, Bladder)

CECT Scan KUB (Kidney, Ureter, Bladder) is a diagnostic procedure in which a contrast material is injected and the rotating beams of X-rays are used to create cross sectional images of the urinary tract which includes the kidneys, ureters, and urinary bladder. These cross sectional images are then used to form a three dimensional image of these organs to detect and diagnose various disorders. The scan is used to find out the blockage, kidney stones, congenital abnormality in the kidney, abscesses in the kidney etc. The scan is also used to place needles in kidney biopsy and to diagnose reasons of kidney failure.
