Case Study
Nephrolithiasis
Nephrolithiasis refers to the formation of stones (calculi) in the kidney. These stones can vary in size and may stay in the kidney or move into the urinary tract, potentially causing pain, obstruction, or infection.
Clinical History:
The patient is a [age]-year-old [male/female] presenting with sudden-onset, sharp, colicky flank pain that began [duration] ago. The pain radiates toward the lower abdomen or groin and is not relieved by rest or position changes.
Associated symptoms include:
Hematuria (blood in urine)
Nausea and/or vomiting
Urinary urgency or frequency
Figer-1 single calculus
📄 Report Sample Line- Nephrolithiasis
Shows a echogenic focus measuring approximately 5.6 mm in the renal calyx with posterior acoustic shadowing, suggestive of nephrolithiasis. No significant hydronephrosis noted."
Conclussion: 📋 Nephrolithioasis
Recommendation: Follow-up imaging (repeat ultrasound or CT KUB) in 1–2 weeks to assess stone progression or resolution.
Figer-2 Multiple calculus
📄 Report Sample Line- Nephrolithiasis
Shows multiple echogenic focus measuring approximately 3.0 mm in the renal calyx with posterior acoustic shadowing, suggestive of nephrolithiasis. No significant hydronephrosis noted."
Conclussion: 📋 Nephrolithioasis
Recommendation: Follow-up imaging (repeat ultrasound or CT KUB) in 1–2 weeks to assess stone progression or resolution.
Figer-3 Multiple calculus
📄 Report Sample Line- Nephrolithiasis
Shows multiple echogenic focus measures between 3.3 to 7.3 mm in the renal calyx with posterior acoustic shadowing, suggestive of nephrolithiasis. No significant hydronephrosis noted."
Conclussion: 📋 Nephrolithioasis
Recommendation: Follow-up imaging (repeat ultrasound or CT KUB) in 1–2 weeks to assess stone progression or resolution.
Figer-4 Renal pelvis calculus
📄 Report Sample Line- Nephrolithiasis
Shows a echogenic focus measures 14.7 mm in the renal pelvis with posterior acoustic shadowing, suggestive of nephrolithiasis. No significant hydronephrosis noted."
Conclussion: 📋 Nephrolithioasis
Recommendation: Follow-up imaging (repeat ultrasound or CT KUB) in 1–2 weeks to assess stone progression or resolution.
Figer-5 Renal single microlithiasis
📄 Report Sample Line- Microlithiasis
Shows a tiny echogenic foci in renal calyx , suggestive of renal microlithiasis. No significant hydronephrosis noted."
Conclussion: 📋 Renal microlithiasis
Recommendation: Follow-up imaging (repeat ultrasound) in 1–2 weeks to assess stone progression or resolution.
