hi i m asking for a 60 year old asian lady both kidneys are normal in size with right kidney measuring 11.7cm containing four cysts and the largest one only measures up to 6mm. left kidney measures 12.2cm. No hydronephrosis. Urinary bladder is well distended with minimal 25cc urinary blader residual volume is detected after micturition. Mild focal posterior and basal bladder wall thickening is seen. results are from renal tract ultrasound. I would like to know how serious is this and whether further testing is required? and if it is required what would the testing be required for? Thank you
