I think you have another post and I answered that. What's the reason for your mom's ultrasound? Did she have back or flank pain? If radiologist recommends CT scan, the cyst is likely NOT a simple cyst. Yes, if it is a simple cyst, you mom does not need CT scan. You can talk to the radiologist for clarification or request a second reading if you have doubt.
