“…American guideline recommends CT scan as first choice for ureteric stone diagnosis while European says the ultrasound as the initial modality (4) . Normal renal function is critical because it involves the filtration and excretion of metabolic waste products such as urea and ammonium; electrolyte regulation; fluid and acid-base balance; aids in the formation of red blood cells, which is used to maintain blood pressure through the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and to regulate water resorption; and maintain the blood pressure via the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and maintain the volume in blood vessels (5) . Men are more commonly affect than women.…”

“…8 Patient with chronic kidney disease has atrophic kidney with increased renal echogenicity that can be differentiated on ultrasound with acute kidney disease. 9 The purpose of our study was to evaluate chronic kidney disease (CKD) sonographically in addition correlating echogenicity with the level of serum creatinine. The serum creatinine level is a parameter for function of kidney but still instead of that renal echogenicity is best indicator to evaluate the function of kidney because after the therapy of kidney, serum creatinine improves over the period.…”

Background: Chronic kidney disease is defined as abnormality of urinary system, there is persistent abnormality of structure and upward renal excretory function that is sign of irreversible damage to function of nephron. It is a public health problem world widely and it is 12 th most common cause of mortality and morbidity, respectively. Objective: To evaluate chronic kidney disease (CKD) sonographically in addition correlating echogenicity with the level of serum creatinine.

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is defined as any abnormality and impaired kidney functions for more than three months. Most common causes of CKD is diabetes and hypertension. Objective: To determine the association between renal length and echogenicity in patients with or without chronic kidney disease. Methods: In Gilani Ultrasound Centre ,Lahore a descriptive study was conducted on Ultrasound Machine, Nemio 17 Toshiba.70 patients with or without chronic kidney disease were included. Patients with no previous clinical record of diabetes, high blood pressure and age below than 15 were excluded. Results: Data analysis demonstrated that total of 70 patients, (35 normal and 35 with CKD ) were selected in our study.Out of 70, 46(65.7%) were male and 24(34.3%) were female. Our results shows that (out of 70 patients) in right kidney echogenicity, 36(51.0%) no; of patients shows normal echogenicity with grade 0, 18(25.7%) with grade I, 10(14.3%) with grade II, 6(8.6%) with grade III , and in left kidney echogenicity ,37(52.9%) no;of patients shows normal echogenicity with grade 0,16(22.9%) with grade I, 10(14.3%) with grade II, 7(10.0%) with grade III. respectively a significant correlation of CKD with right and left renal were found as ,in right renal length with CKD mean length was 8.914 ±1.43 and without CKD ,10.4 ± 1.2 similarly in left renal length with CKD mean length was 9.49 ± 1.48 and without CKD,10.28 ±1.14.There is also a significant correlation was found between CKD ,right and left renal echogenicity ( significant P value is .000 for right and .000 for left renal length). Conclusion: Study concluded that echogenicity and renal length can help us to estimate the severity of CKD. It also states that there is a significant association, that was found between renal echogenicity, renal length and CKD.
