A member asked:
I have 6 mm calcification (not stone) in my kidney.is it possible to pass it or i need something else?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
How come not a stone: Most discreet 6mm kidney calcifications are in fact kidney stones. Calcification will not pass if it's within kidney tissue. Can pass if in a calyx or renal pelvis, but this is upper limit of what can pass on it's own. Best to get advice from a urologist.

Ultrasound detected concrement 5 mm without acoustic shadow. The urine test is ok, no cristals. It was concluded that it needs to differentiate between stone and kidney calcification. Can CT scan without contrast clarify it? I have iodine allergy.
