A member asked:
Can they do ultrasound of the kidneys when they do my ob scan?

TECHNICALLY SHOULD B: While it is technically possible to do an OB ultrasound and do a renal ultrasound at the same sitting, the insurance situation may prevent you from having both done at the same time, or could result in you being handed a bill for one of the procedures.

U/s: Technically, yes. But, there should be a medical reason that checking the kidneys will benefit you.
