What is a Ultrasound KUB Test in Visit Clinic?
What is Ultrasound KUB?
Ultrasound KUB evaluates renal health by measuring specific waste products or electrolytes in the blood or urine. It helps nephrologists detect kidney disease early , often before symptoms appear , and track progression in patients with existing renal conditions.
What does Ultrasound KUB measure?
Ultrasound KUB creates pictures of the kidneys, ureters and bladder using sound waves. It does not use radiation. It shows organ size, shape, cysts, tumors, stones, and fluid buildup. The specific marker measured depends on the test your doctor has ordered. A blood sample is typically drawn from a vein in the arm and processed through NABL-accredited laboratory equipment. Results are compared against established reference ranges for your age and gender.
What do the results of Ultrasound KUB mean?
Results are reported as numerical values alongside the laboratory's reference range for your age and gender. A value within the range is considered normal. Values above or below the range are flagged and discussed by your doctor in the context of your symptoms and medical history. Not every abnormal result requires immediate treatment.
