A member asked:
What's the difference between whole abdomen ultrasound and kub ultrasound ? is kub ultrasound more detailed?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
KUB is limited to examination of kidneys and urinary bladder, not of the abdominal organs. The difference is mainly in the area examined, not the detail of examination.
