A member asked:
What to do if i did scan and it says there is mild calyceal fullness/dilatation seen in the lift kidney(?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely nothing: The calyces of the kidney fill with urine and drain down the ureter into the bladder. Sometimes they are filled with urine and sometimes they are empty. CT scans and ultrasounds see the kidney in one moment in time. Your calyces were most likely normally filled with urine.
