    Summary

    New imaging techniques like native radiographs and sonography are now preferred for diagnosing kidney stones (urolithiasis). Excretion urography is not recommended as a primary diagnostic tool, emphasizing interdisciplinary collaboration.

    Area of Science:

    • Radiology
    • Urology
    • Medical Imaging

    Background:

    • Urolithiasis diagnosis requires consideration of therapeutic outcomes.
    • Traditional diagnostic methods are being re-evaluated with advancements in imaging technology.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline current, evidence-based diagnostic schedules for suspected renal calculus.
    • To emphasize the shift away from excretion urography as a primary diagnostic method.

    Main Methods:

    • Utilizing native radiographs and sonography for the initial detection or exclusion of renal calculi.
    • Describing established diagnostic protocols.

    Main Results:

    • Native radiographs and sonography are identified as the primary imaging modalities for suspected kidney stones.
    • Excretion urography is deemed unjustified as an initial investigation.

    Conclusions:

    • Diagnostic strategies for urolithiasis should prioritize cost-effective and efficient imaging techniques.
    • Effective interdisciplinary cooperation between radiologists and urologists is crucial for implementing updated diagnostic pathways.
