KUB Ultrasound

KUB ultrasound is performed using high-resolution ultrasound imaging on the Mindray Nuewa i9 system, enabling detailed evaluation of the kidneys, ureters and urinary bladder in a safe and non-invasive manner.

KUB (Kidney, Ureter, Bladder) ultrasound is recommended for evaluation of urinary and renal conditions:

• Flank or lower abdominal pain

• Suspected kidney or ureteric stones

• Burning urination or urinary symptoms

• Evaluation of hydronephrosis

• Assessment of urinary retention

• Follow-up of known renal or bladder conditions

🔍 What Does KUB US Evaluate

• Kidneys – size, stones, hydronephrosis and parenchymal changes

• Ureters – dilatation or obstruction (when visible)

• Urinary bladder – wall thickness, calculi and residual urine

• Post-void residual urine – bladder emptying assessment
