Final Pr. ID: Poster #: SCI-005
Lower moiety hydronephrosis/ureteropelvic junction (UPJ) obstruction is an uncommon configuration of duplex collecting systems. We sought to characterize its prevalence, appearance and behavior using diuresis renograms (DR). Read More

Serial renal ultrasound (RUS) is often used as a surrogate for functional renal imaging among patients followed for hydronephrosis. However, it is unclear whether a lack of progression on serial RUS safeguards against loss of renal function. This study was performed to better characterize the association between findings on serial RUS and diuretic renography (DR) among children with unilateral high-grade hydronephrosis. Read More

In 2014, a new classification system for prenatal and postnatal urinary tract dilatation (UTD) was introduced via a multidisciplinary consensus statement. We have created an easy to use web-based calculator for the prenatal and postnatal UTD classification system which can be used to generate the risk category and the current recommendations for each group. We aim to simplify the overall process for physicians who are either unfamiliar with details of the classification system or apply the classification system infrequently, making it difficult to remember the criteria each time. Moreover, the final risk stratification group and the corresponding current recommendations are automatically copied to the clipboard and can be pasted directly into the imaging report, facilitating the reporting process.
