Not for the cyst: All results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Solitary renal cysts are not uncommon.

Renal ultrasound showed I have mild cortical thinning of the right kidney greater than the left but no hydronephrosis, stone, or mass bilaterally. What does this mean? Right kidney measures 10.6 by 3.6 by 4.6. Left kidney 10 by 4.5 by 4.8?
