Radio-graphic study of the renal pelvis and ureter using injected dye.
A series of X-ray photographs of the kidneys using pyelography.
Radiograph of the urinary tract to examine the structure and function of the renal calyces, renal pelvis, ureters, and urinary bladder using the intravenous injection of a radiopaque contrast medium.
A radiographic record of the kidneys and urinary tract after intravenous injection of contrast medium to aid in visualization.
A succession of X-ray films of the urinary tract following the injection into a vein of an iodine-containing substance (which is opaque to X-rays). This material is concentrated and excreted by the kidneys, and the IVP reveals details of the kidneys, the ureters, and subsequently the bladder. An IVP tests kidney function and reveals the presence of stones in the kidneys or ureters and other abnormalities of the urinary tract.
A procedure for getting X-ray pictures of the urinary tract. A radio-opaque medium is injected into a vein and, when it is excreted by the kidneys, the substance can be identified on X-rays. Any abnormalities in structure or foreign bodies such as calculi are outlined by the dye.
A pyelogram in which a radiopaque material is given intravenously. Multiple radiographs of the urinary tract taken while the material is excreted provide important information about the structure and function of the kidney, ureter, and bladder. This examination may be used to detect kidney stones and other lesions that may block or irritate the urinary tract.
A medical technique involving the injection of a dye into a vein located in the arm. The dye circulates throughout the body, eventually accumulating in the urine for excretion. This process helps visualize and highlight the structure of the kidneys, ureters, and urinary bladder. Subsequently, an x-ray image is captured, enabling the identification of any abnormalities within the urinary tract.
