Hi
I have gone through your ultrasound reports. Right nephrolitiasis means calculi in right kidney. To know kidney function Dr asked BUN/creatinine.now ordered CT to know what type and to plsn nephrolithiasis.the other imaging modality to know excreatory function and patency of ureters is intravenous pyelogram ..sequential examination is good.dont worry.its good method of examination.
Thank you
