bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level
Radiological lung disease

opacity 4-8 mm in diameter presumed to
representa pulmonary acinus rendered opaque
by consolidation This term is usually used in the presence of many such opacities

The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)

Abdominal calcification
bullRenal calcification
bullUreteric calcification
bullBladder stones
bullRetroperitoneal calcification
bullViscus calcification
bullArtifact or foreign body
Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

calcification
Viscus calcification
Hepatobiliary tree such as in the gallbladder (gallstones)
Gastrointestinal tract such as in the appendix
(appendicolith)
may be mistaken for renal stones
Gallstones
Only 10-15 of gallstones
contain enough calcium to
be visible on an abdominal X-ray
Appendicoliths are highly
predictive of appendicitis
in patients presenting with right iliac fossa pain

Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)

densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple

Radiological sign
bull Air bronchogram
an air-filled bronchus against surrounding opacified alveoli It is indicative of an airspace process and will not be seen when a bronchus is filled with fluid or when the opacification of the alveoli is due to obstruction (as air is resorbed)

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level

The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)
Radiographically consolidation is seen as
relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level

replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)

bullArtifact or foreign body
Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level
Radiological lung disease
bull Predominately airspace disease
1 Acinar shadow
A round or ovoid poorly defined pulmonary
opacity 4-8 mm in diameter presumed to
representa pulmonary acinus rendered opaque
by consolidation This term is usually used in the presence of many such opacities
2 Consolidation
The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)
Radiographically consolidation is seen as
relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss
effacement of pulmonary blood vessels and
sometimes the presence of the air bronchogram

When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level
Radiological lung disease
bull Predominately airspace disease
1 Acinar shadow
A round or ovoid poorly defined pulmonary
opacity 4-8 mm in diameter presumed to

by consolidation This term is usually used in the presence of many such opacities
2 Consolidation
The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)
Radiographically consolidation is seen as
relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss
effacement of pulmonary blood vessels and
sometimes the presence of the air bronchogram

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)

visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)

visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis

Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple

Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level

The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)
Radiographically consolidation is seen as
relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level

The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)

relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss

visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Radiological sign
bull Air bronchogram
an air-filled bronchus against surrounding opacified alveoli It is indicative of an airspace process and will not be seen when a bronchus is filled with fluid or when the opacification of the alveoli is due to obstruction (as air is resorbed)

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level

1 Acinar shadow
A round or ovoid poorly defined pulmonary
opacity 4-8 mm in diameter presumed to

2 Consolidation
The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)
Radiographically consolidation is seen as
relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss

bull Cervicothoracic sign
The location of a lesion at the inlet of the thoracic cavity In this anatomical space the posterior portions of the lung apices are located more superiorly than the anterior portions For this reason a lesion clearly visible above the clavicles on the frontal view must lie posteriorly and be entirely within the thorax If the cranial border of the lesion is obscured at or below the level of the clavicles it is located at the anterior mediastinum The borders are not clearly delineated because the lesion is far from the air filled lung and there are cervical soft tissues at this level
Radiological lung disease
bull Predominately airspace disease
1 Acinar shadow
A round or ovoid poorly defined pulmonary
opacity 4-8 mm in diameter presumed to
representa pulmonary acinus rendered opaque
by consolidation This term is usually used in the presence of many such opacities
2 Consolidation
The process by which air in the lung is
replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)
Radiographically consolidation is seen as
relatively homogeneous
opacity in the lung with little or no volume loss

Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)

Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)

The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on

Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract

Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone

replaced by the products of disease rendering the
lung solid (as in the case of pneumonia)

visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)

The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on

Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple

bullArtifact or foreign body
Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Renal calcification
Renal collecting systems (calculistones)
90 of renal calculi contain enough calcium to be
visible on abdominal X-rays Urate and matrix stones are not visible
Renal stones are often small but if large can fill the
renal pelvis or a calyx taking on its shape which is
likened to a staghorn
Kidney parenchyma (nephrocalcinosis)
Staghorn calculus
The irregularly shaped calcific
density has filled and taken on
the form of the right kidney lower pole calyx
Nephrocalcinosis
The renal parenchyma contains
clusters of small calcific
densities
Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys

Ureteric calcification
As with renal stones approximately 90 are visible
Ureteric stones originate as renal stones
May cause renal outflow tract
obstruction which manifests
clinically with severe ipsilateral flankloingroin pain usually with
haematuria
Look carefully for ureteric stones which can be very subtle Dont mistake a transverse process for a stone
Bladder stone
Bladder stones form in the bladder as a result of urinary stasis
When seen on an abdominalpelvic X-ray they are often multiple
and rounded
Multiple well defined calcific densities are seen within the bladder
Retroperitoneal calcificationretroperitoneal organs (pancreas or adrenal glands) only become visible when calcified
Adrenal calcification is usually an incidental finding
The adrenal (suprarenal) glands form a
triangle shape lying directly above the kidneys
