What Causes Tiny Spots On The Kidney With Hematuria?

I just had an ultra sound done because I had a trace of blood in my urine and when the test was done they found a spot on my left kidney. My creatine levels are on the upper end of normal. I have an appointment for a MRI to do look further. Are all spots cancer or are there any other things that could create spots?

Urologist,  's  Response
Hello
Thanks for query .You had a hematuria and your ultrasound scanning has revealed spots in the Left kidney .

This could be due to one of the either two reasons
1) Infective process
2) Tumor either benign or Malignant .

You need to consult qualified Urologist for clinical evaluation and get following basic tests done to confirm the diagnosis .
1) Urine routine and culture.
2) C.T scan of abdomen and pelvis with and without contrast .
3) MRI

Further investigations if required and treatment will depend upon result of these tests and final diagnosis.
