Kidney CT

TC RiñonesTC Riñones

Diagnostic test that involves obtaining high-definition anatomical two- and three-dimensional images of the kidney and urinary system using CT (computed tomography) equipment. The study is performed before and after the use of iodinated contrast in different ‘renal phases’ for functional and anatomical assessment (renal parenchyma, ureters, urinary bladder, renal arteries and veins, etc.), as well as adjacent structures (inferior vena cava, abdominal aorta, liver, spleen, etc.). It is particularly recommended when kidney damage is suspected, in patients with blood in their urine or haematuria, etc.
