Ultrasonographic investigation of the kidneys and efferent urinary tract as well as juxtarenal organ regions has become an indispensable screening method in urology today. Various diseases of the kidneys can be detected rapidly and noninvasively. Some of these clinical pictures are discussed in detail. Above and beyond simple imaging, ultrasonography also allows special diagnostic interventions (biopsy) and therapeutic measures (i.e. nephrostomy).

“…The value of angiography, the most elaborate and expensive measure in dealing with blunt renal trauma, is likewise independent of kidney func tioning and this examination gives in a single prowhereas the pretraumatic changes are worked out by their usual sonographic criteria (2,3,5,7,(9)(10)(11)(12)14). To differentiate sonographically parapelvic cysts from a dilated renal collecting system is not always possible without the aid of IVP, the same problems arise if one should distinguish blood clots, organ fragments and tumor tissue in a com pletely destroyed kidney.…”

“…The kidneys are, because of their location and characteristic shape with sharp acoustic boundary surfaces, ideally suited for sonography (2,3,5,6,9,12). By sonography it is possible to evaluate macromorphological pathological changes of or gans and therefore also traumatic changes of the kidneys.…”

To determine the average diameter and the upper normal limit of the common bile duct in healthy man, 830 blood donors were examined by ultrasound. The mean diameter was 2.5 +/- 1.1 mm (SD) at the porta hepatis and 2.8 +/- 1.2 mm (SD) at the widest point, the regression coefficient between both diameters being r = 0.84. None of the healthy subjects had a diameter larger than 7 mm at any site, and in 95% of all subjects the diameters were less than 4 mm at both sites of measurement. The diameters were significantly correlated with age (r = 0.16) and weight (r = 0.11), but not with sex, height, and body surface area. In 73 patients with cholelithiasis and in 55 patients after cholecystectomy, all of whom lacked clinical or laboratory signs of biliary obstruction, the average diameters at the porta hepatis were 3.8 +/- 2.0 mm and 5.2 +/- 2.3 mm, and at the widest point 4.8 +/- 2.2 mm and 6.2 +/- 2.5 mm, respectively. It is concluded that a common bile duct with any sonographic diameter larger than 4 mm should be followed closely and evaluated further with clinical examinations such as intravenous cholangiography unless cholecystectomy has been performed.
