Advanced equipment and radiologists who see you in person mean faster, more accurate exams — same-day scan, same-day reading and same-day explanation of your results.
Checking the Kidneys
and Bladder
Urinary Tract Imaging
(MRI / Ultrasound / CT)
Prime Radiology uses a 3.0T MRI, the latest ultrasound systems and a 128-channel, 443-slice CT scanner to diagnose urinary tract conditions precisely. Urinary conditions such as kidney stones, urinary tract infections, cystitis and prostate disease take many forms, and symptoms can differ with age and sex, so early diagnosis is very important. Urinary tract CT quickly and accurately identifies structural problems such as stones, tumors and inflammation, while kidney MRI precisely distinguishes kidney tumors from cysts (fluid-filled sacs) without radiation. Ultrasound evaluates the structure of the kidneys and bladder in real time, allowing a fast and accurate diagnosis when you have flank pain, difficulty urinating, blood in the urine or frequent urination.
Precise diagnosis and fast results —
trusted urinary tract imaging for your health and peace of mind.
Types of Urinary Tract Imaging
With MRI, CT and ultrasound, Prime Radiology can detect conditions
of the kidneys, ureters and bladder at an early stage.
Kidney MRI
Kidney MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging)
- Evaluates kidney tumors, kidney cysts (fluid-filled sacs) and adrenal tumors in detail without radiation exposure.
- Helps determine whether a kidney lesion found on ultrasound or CT is benign or malignant.
- Depending on the purpose of the exam, contrast may be used to show lesions more clearly.
Recommended for
- Evaluating kidney
tumors or cysts
in detail - Follow-up of
lesions found on
ultrasound or CT - When radiation
exposure is
a concern - Suspected
adrenal tumor
Urinary Tract CT
Urinary Tract CT (Computed Tomography)
- Precisely evaluates urinary stones, kidney cancer, bladder cancer, ureteral cancer, pyelonephritis (kidney infection) and urinary obstruction.
- Contrast-enhanced CT shows the structure and function of the kidneys and ureters even more clearly.
- Allows a fast diagnosis in urgent situations such as acute renal colic or urinary obstruction, and accurately measures the size and location of kidney stones.
Recommended for
- Stones: location,
size and
hydronephrosis - Finding the cause
of blood in
the urine - Suspected kidney,
ureteral or
bladder cancer - Kidney injury
or urinary
obstruction
Kidney & Urinary Ultrasound
Renal & Bladder Ultrasound
- A basic test that evaluates the kidneys and bladder for abnormalities.
- Can identify abnormalities of the kidney tissue, urinary obstruction (a blocked ureter), kidney cysts (fluid-filled sacs) and cystitis.
- Non-invasive and radiation-free, it lets us observe the organs in real time.
Recommended for
- Blood or protein
in the urine - Painful, frequent
or incomplete
urination - Suspected kidney
or bladder stones
or kidney cysts - Abnormal kidney
function found on
a health check-up
Urinary Tract Imaging
Comparison & Key Features
The urinary system (kidneys, ureters, bladder and urethra) plays a vital role in producing and eliminating urine,
and can be affected by a range of conditions, including kidney stones, cystitis, kidney disease and kidney cancer.
