A member asked:
What procedures can examine the left ureter to see if there's a problem. i've had a cystoscopy done and also an ultrasound and ct done on the kidney.

Retrograde pyelogram: A retrograde pyelogram involves a cystoscopy where dye is squirted up the into the ureter which becomes well outlined. However with a normal u/s and ct scan there doesn't seem any need for this to be done. I would abide by the urologist' s advice in this case.
