Kidney, Ureter & Bladder Scan for Women
£120
At Sonoscan Healthcare, we provide professional and accurate private KUB ultrasound scans for women in Stockport and Manchester, offering detailed assessment of the kidneys, ureters, and bladder.A KUB scan is a safe, non-invasive ultrasound examination used to investigate urinary symptoms, kidney pain, or suspected stones. It provides valuable diagnostic information without the use of radiation.
What Is a KUB Ultrasound?
KUB stands for Kidneys, Ureters and Bladder. This scan evaluates the structure and appearance of the urinary system to help identify potential abnormalities.The sonographer looks at the size and shape of both kidneys, checks for stones, cysts or swelling of the drainage system (hydronephrosis), and assesses the bladder wall and how well the bladder empties.
When Might You Need a KUB Scan?
Your GP may recommend a KUB ultrasound if you are experiencing:
- Flank or lower back pain
- Recurrent urinary tract infections (UTIs)
- Blood in the urine
- Difficulty urinating
- Suspected kidney stones
- Abnormal kidney function blood tests
Preparing for Your KUB Scan
A KUB scan works best with a comfortably full bladder, so you will usually be asked to drink water before your appointment and avoid emptying your bladder until after the scan. We will confirm any preparation when you book. The scan itself is painless and you can return to normal activities straight afterwards.Private KUB Ultrasound (Female) in Stockport & Greater Manchester
