Urinary tract imaging

Abstract

The radiologic studies for the evaluation of the urinary tract in children are those most frequently in daily practice; the number of children studied was also significantly increased in recent years, in proportion to the spread on the territory and the practice of routine prenatal ultrasound. Many diagnostic techniques are available, such as ultrasound which was further refined in the last decade, while others have become obsolete in the different diagnostic algorithms, replaced by new techniques that are recently introduced, and in either case, knowledge of these advances is essential for a modern diagnostic approach in terms of accuracy, efficiency, and radiation protection.
