Interfering Factors |
Clinical Significance of Findings |
|
Cystoscopy
|
Endoscopic Study |
Normal structure and function of the urethra, bladder, ureters, and prostate (in males) |
Commonly performed for patients with hematuria, recurrent or resistant urinary tract infections, or other urinary symptoms. Used to evaluate patients with suspected pathologic conditions of the urethra, bladder, and lower ureters. |
Inability to remain still (due to pain or mental status). |
Lower urologic tract tumors- bladder cancers and polyps. Bladder or ureter stones, prostatic hypertrophy, prostate cancer, inflammation of the bladder and urethra, urethral, ureteral stricture |

KUB Kidneys Ureters Bladder a.k.a. flat plate of the abdomen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pyelography
|
X-ray study |
Normal size, shape, and position of the kidneys, renal pelvis, ureters, & bladder. Normal kidney excretory function |
Pain compatible with urinary stones, blood in the urine, proposed pelvic surgery to locate the ureters, trauma to the urinary system, urinary output obstruction, or a suspected kidney tumor |
Fecal material, gas, retained barium in the bowel, or abnormal renal function may obscure findings. Allergies to iodine/shellfish, severe dehydration, renal insufficiency, multiple myeloma, contraindications |
An x-ray study that uses radiopaque contrast material to visualize the structures. Contrast can be injected intravenously, through a catheter in the ureter (retrograde pyelography) or through a catheter in the proximal renal collecting system (antegrade pyelography)
Findings can include pyelonephritis or glomerulonephritis, tumors, stones, trauma, or prostate enlargement |
|
Cystography
|
X-ray study |
Normal bladder structure and function |
Used in patients with hematuria, recurrent UTIs, and suspected bladder trauma |
Urethral or bladder infection or injury. Can cause worsening of existing bladder injury due to instillation of dye into the bladder. |
Bladder tumor (Primary cancers can be seen), pelvic tumor or hematoma, bladder trauma (laceration or perforation of the bladder would show dye outside of the bladder), vesicoureteral reflux (reflux of urine or dye from the bladder into the ureter) |

Clinical Significance of Findings |
|
24-hour urine
|
Urine |
Varies depending on which component is being looked at |
Helps to diagnose kidney problems- measures protein, hormones, minerals and other chemical compounds |
Certain foods (coffee, tea, cocoa, bananas, citrus fruits), acute stress, vigorous exercise, not keeping urine cold while collecting it, losing urine from the collection
Information obtained from https://www.hopkinsmedicine.org/health/treatment-tests-and-therapies/24hour-urine-collection |
The patient is instructed to void and discard the first specimen of the day- this is noted as the start time of the 24-hour period. All urine for the next 24 hours is collected. Some analytes are excreted at different rates throughout the day/night and may be missed with random urine specimens. |

Renal Angiogram
|
X-ray Study |
Normal arterial vasculature |
To evaluate arterial occlusive disease of the adrenal gland and kidneys |
Allergies to shellfish or dye Uncooperative or agitated Pregnancy Renal Disorders Dehydration Unstable cardiac disorders |
Provides an accurate picture of the vascular anatomy of the structures Involves the injection of radiopaque contrast dye into the arteries |
