A member asked:
I have echogenic specks in my kidneys probably vascular, i am a healthy 21 year old ..what does above statement mean and do i need to go to a doctor ?

Normal finding.: The ultrasound tech probably got confused by the bright spots that can be caused by normal blood vessels in the center of the kidney. This is a common phenomenon and does not indicate any disease. Only see your doctor if you have symptoms of pain or trouble with urination.
