| Popis: | Acute urinary tract disorders are a common complaint of patients who present to the emergency department. The pain is often poorly localized and it can have a variety of causes. Laboratory and clinical findings are neither sensitive nor specific for determining the cause of the pain. Accordingly, imaging is an important tool for diagnosis and management. The most common conditions for these patients are renal colic, renal infection, hematuria, acute scrotal pain, and trauma. |
