Ureteroscopy Diagnostic Imaging

Ureteroscopy Diagnostic Imaging is most useful when your doctor or other qualified clinician needs imaging of Ureter/renal collecting system for direct optical visualization of internal or surface structures. Please bring the referral or clinical question if one has been issued, because the exact protocol may depend on why this specific scan is being requested.

This procedure may require fasting, bowel preparation, local anaesthetic or sedation depending on the body area. Arrange an escort if sedation is planned and follow the procedure unit's written instructions exactly. For Ureteroscopy Diagnostic Imaging specifically, follow any appointment message from the imaging centre because the final protocol can change with your clinical history and the exact question being investigated.

Please provide the clinical indication or referral question for Ureteroscopy Diagnostic Imaging, relevant symptoms and duration, previous surgery or treatment involving Ureter/renal collecting system, current medicines, allergies where relevant, and any previous imaging or reports that could help comparison.

At the appointment, staff will confirm your identity and the reason for Ureteroscopy Diagnostic Imaging, position you appropriately and acquire images of Ureter/renal collecting system.
