my husband got his ultrasound results in a KUB ultrasound the first thing state is - Mild bilateral loss of corticomedullary differentiation noted ---what does this mean? - No evidence of focal renal parenchymal lesions, renal calculi or hydronephrosis seen. -The right kidney measured 11.3 cm x 4.7 cm and the left measured 11.2 cm x 4.6 cm. - The urinary bladder appeared grossly normal in outline. - Pre void volume- 141 mls. - Post micturation residue - negligible. - The prostate appeared homogeneous in echotexture and measured 20 mls in whole gland volume. Can you explain this ultra sound for me please. thank you

Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
Mild bilateral loss of corticomedullary differentiation indicates renal parenchymal disease.
He need proper clinical examination and further investigations.
Investigations include routine hemogram,RBS,LFT,RFT(includes serum urea,creatinine,creatinine clearance,GFR,serum electrolytes like sodium,potassium,calcium,phosphorus,chloride,bicarbonate etc).
Proper treatment depend upon clinical findings and investigation reports.
Rest of the findings are within normal limit.
Hope i have answered your query.
