  • Stony Brook University

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Urolithiasis is the condition where kidney stones are formed anywhere along the course of the urinary tract. Diagnostic imaging is used in patients with symptoms suggestive of renal stones to confirm that Urolithiasis is the source of the patient’s pain and to identify the location, size and possible complications of the kidney stones. It will also dictate the most appropriate treatment to follow [1].
