A member asked:
Calcifications within the posterior aspect of the right kidney are associated with an area of parenchymal scarring no evidence of ureteral calculus or hydronephrosis is observed this is the low contrast ct scan on the kidney, doc said no issues?

It is an abnormal finding, especially at your age; however, it less likely affects your total kidney function. I wonder if you had a serious kidney infection or your right kidney was injured (motor vehicle accident, sport injury ..) in the past.
