Good Day and thank you for being with Healthcare Magic!

your father might have a stone in the ureter that is why he has pain and ultrasound shows dilatation. He needs to get a CT Stonogram to check the size and location of the stone in the ureter.

I hope I have succeeded in providing the information you were looking for. Please feel free to write back to me for any further clarifications at: http://www.HealthcareMagic.com/doctors/dr-manuel-c-see-iv/66014 I would gladly help you. Best wishes
