Abstract:
The objective of this study was to characterize the kidney’s appearance in patients with uncountable pus cells in the laboratory test. This study was done on 50 patients suffering from symptoms of renal infection with positive laboratory findings..The study was obtained at ElmickNimirUniversity Hospital during the period between 3-12-2016 to29-1 2017.
All patients with uncountable puss cells were included in the study and those with normal laboratory tests were excluded. All patients’ kidneys were scanned in sagital coronal, and cross section. The length width and depth were registered. Each exam was documented in thermal image. All patients were evaluated sonographically using FukISDAmodd:Uf870 machine with convex low frequency transducer 3.5MHz. Data was collected using the following variables: Age, gender, kidney volume,Renal cortex echogenicity (normal or echogenic), corticomedullary differentiation (good or poor). Patient’s age included in the study was between 25-65years old. The results of renal scanning were that there is significant relation between the diagnosis finding/ with renal cortex echotexture for Both kidneys at p=0.059/ and 0.059.
As well as corticomedullary differentiation at p=0.020 for the Rt kidney and also there is significant relation with the amout finding for both kidneys.
The renal volume increased significant at p=0.000 in pyleonephritis for both Rt and Lt kidneys.
