Ultrasound images of case Nephrostomy
Renal obstruction in which the pelvicalyceal system is dilated may be alleviated by the percutaneous introduction of a nephrostomy tube under ultrasound guidance. This procedure relieves pressure in the renal collecting system and avoids potential irreversible damage to the renal parenchyma (Fig. ultrasound images below). Although the procedure may be carried out completely under ultrasound control, it is normally performed in a screening room where a combination of ultrasound and X-ray screening can be used to maximal effect.

Longitudinal ultrasound scan of the left kidney immediately following nephrostomy. The collecting system remains dilated due to injected contrast. The echogenic tips of the drainage cathether (arrow) can be visualized within the renal pelvis.

I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
