Hi Thanks for the query. The USG findings of prominence of pelvicalyceal system can indicate a recent passage of stone through the ureter or a stone obstructing the ureter; although this seems less likely. You need to repeat the scan in a week or so and if the findings persist; you may need a CT scan as small stones are often not seen on USG. Meanwhile drink plenty of fluids. Hope this helps Good luck.
