Comparison of computed tomography urography,ultrasonography and intravenous pyelography used in the diagnosis of duplication of kidney and ureter
Objective To evaluate the application of computed tomography urography(CTU),ultrasonography and intravenous pyelography(IVP)in the diagnosis of duplication of kidney and ureter.Methods Clinical diagnostic information of 79 patients with duplication of kidney and ureter admitted to the 971st Hospital of Navy from February 2016 to October 2021 were retrospectively analyzed.All the patients received ultrasonography,IVP and CTU.Results The diagnostic accordance rates of ultrasonography,IVP and CTU for duplication of kidney and ureter were 64.6%,72.2%and 96.2%,respectively.Clear dimensional features presented in CTU and postprocessing images,which fully met the need of diagnosis in duplication of kidney and ureter.Conclusion CTU can provide more comprehensive and accurate clinical diagnostic information.The diagnostic accuracy rate of CTU for duplication of kidney and ureter is higher than those of ultrasonography and IVP,which is worthy of popular ization and application.
