Kidney and adrenal ultrasound examination (echoscopy)

Kidney and adrenal ultrasound examination – is a safe, non-invasive, and informative imaging test that allows the evaluation of the structure and potential changes of the kidneys and adrenal glands.

During the examination, the ultrasound assesses:

• kidneys size, shape, and position,
• renal parenchyma structure,
• pelvic and calyceal system,
• stones, cysts, or other structural changes,
• adrenal area and potential changes (if visualized),
• indirect signs of pressure or pathological processes.

This examination helps identify structural changes in the kidneys and adrenal glands, evaluate the causes of lumbar or abdominal pain, the origin of altered laboratory indicators, and monitor the course of known conditions or the effectiveness of treatment.

What is important to know?

• The examination is painless and safe, no ionizing radiation is used.
• Recommended minimal preparation (information about fluid intake or bladder condition is provided at registration).
• Duration – about 20–30 minutes.
• The results of the examination are discussed immediately, providing clear conclusions and further recommendations.

The examination is intended for those who want to comprehensively assess the condition of the kidneys and adrenal glands, timely detect possible changes, and make informed decisions about their health.
