Know more about this test

The Ultrasound KUB (Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder) is a safe, noninvasive, painless imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to create detailed images of these vital organs. It helps diagnose conditions such as kidney stones, urinary tract infections, blockages, or other structural abnormalities, offering reliable insights into your urinary system. It is available at an affordable price near you in Gurgaon with our partnered labs.

This test is often recommended if an individual experiences symptoms such as abdominal pain, blood in the urine, frequent urination, or difficulty urinating. It helps to look for changes in the bladder wall, kidney size, or structure. It is also used to detect stones in the urinary tract and evaluate the reasons for recurrent kidney infections. Additionally, it can help identify the cause of renal or pelvic pain.

Fasting is not required for Ultrasound KUB. Usual food and supplements can be taken unless otherwise specified by the doctor. A full bladder is required, so a pint of water should be consumed the hour before the scan. Wear comfortable clothing to allow easy access to the body parts that need to be scanned.

Understanding Ultrasound KUB

Ultrasound KUB aids in assessing the health of the urinary system. It evaluates the size, shape, and condition when it's full and immediately after emptying of the urinary bladder. It also examines the right and left kidneys, the ureters, and the other soft tissue structures within the abdomen. In men, the test examines the prostate gland.

This test is usually advised when there are symptoms like stomach pain, hematuria, frequent urination, or not being able to urinate. It helps to look for abnormalities in the bladder wall, kidney size, or shape. It is also performed to detect stones within the urinary tract. Additionally, it helps assess the cause of recurrent kidney infections. Furthermore, it can help detect the root cause for the renal or pelvic pain.

The Ultrasound KUB test is a safer option to other imaging studies, i.e., X-rays or Computed Tomography (CT) scans, as it does not employ ionizing radiation or oral contrast media.

Normally, fasting is not needed for the test. Drink plenty of water before the USG examination to have a full bladder at the time of the test. This helps ensure clear pictures of the subject areas. Dress in comfortable clothing to provide easy access to parts of the body that require a scan. If you are pregnant, tell the doctor or technician. Although the USG is harmless, some adjustments might be necessary to provide optimal care during pregnancy.

Interpretation of test results requires expert guidance. Therefore, do not self-medicate solely based on the test results. Always consult the doctor for a proper understanding of the test results. The Ultrasound KUB helps doctors make informed decisions about further treatment or lifestyle recommendations.
