Question
Hello doctor,
I am currently having grade 3 pyelonephritis without stones. The left ureter is 14mm dilated in the upper third of the ureter, with an echo-enhanced image with a balloon size: 1.6cm. So, the doctor asked me what does an ultrasound of the left ureter with echocardiogram mean? Thank you doctor.
