See your doctor: A shadow is nonspecific and requires training to look at the entire image with knowledge of the clinical situation. The shadow could be a cyst or an area beneath a kidney stone or a false image due to bad technique. Sometimes normal parts of a kidney can look like a shadow depending on the kind of image used. Discuss the shadow with your doctor while looking at it.
