What is a Ultrasound Whole Abdomen Pre and Post Void Urine Test in Chennai ?
What is Ultrasound Whole Abdomen Pre and Post Void Urine?
An ultrasound of the whole abdomen with pre and post void images uses sound waves to make pictures of internal organs and the bladder. It does not measure a blood chemical. Instead, it shows organ size, shape, and how the bladder fills and empties. It is particularly important for people with diabetes or hypertension , the two leading causes of chronic kidney disease in India, responsible for over 60% of cases requiring dialysis.
What does Ultrasound Whole Abdomen Pre and Post Void Urine measure?
This helps explain symptoms like pain, swelling, blood in urine, or trouble passing urine. The scan can find kidney stones, hydronephrosis, cysts, liver or spleen enlargement, tumors, and bladder outlet problems. Doctors use it to diagnose causes of abdominal pain, monitor known liver or kidney disease, check urinary retention, and guide further tests or treatment. eGFR (estimated glomerular filtration rate) is calculated from the creatinine value, age, and gender. It is a more informative indicator of kidney health than creatinine alone.
What symptoms suggest Ultrasound Whole Abdomen Pre and Post Void Urine may be needed?
A doctor may order Ultrasound Whole Abdomen Pre and Post Void Urine when a patient reports ankle or leg swelling, reduced urine output, frothy or foamy urine, persistent fatigue, loss of appetite, nausea, persistent itching, muscle cramps, and high blood pressure.
