Dr. J. S. Sikarwar, Dr. Kannan M

Abstract :

OBJECTIVES: To study the spectrum of imaging findings in haematuria patients. To study the accuracy of Multidetector CT Urography (MDCTU) in identifying pathologies causing hematuria in comparison with other modalities like Radiography and Ultrasonography (USG). To study whether with a single investigation MDCTU can assist in formulating the right management strategy in every patient of haematuria. METHODS: This prospective observational study was conducted at the department Radio–diagnosis, GRMC, Gwalior over a period of 18 months. Total number of cases included 100. RESULTS : Out of the 100 cases findings were Urolithiasis (33%), renal masses (16%), renal infection (8%), cystitis (4%), urinary bladder masses (18%), BPH (4%), prostatic carcinoma (4%), trauma (4%), extra urothelial pathologies (5%) and no causes found in (4%) of patients. CONCLUSION: MDCTU identified and characterized various pathologies causing haematuria with high accuracy in comparison with other modalities like radiography and ultrasonography (USG).
