Overview
Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of polycystic kidney disease. Findings on an ultrasound diagnostic of polycystic kidney disease include, atleast three unilateral or bilateral cysts in patients 15 - 39 years old, atleast two cysts in each kidney in patients 40 - 59 years old, atleast four cysts in each kidney in patients 60 years of age or older.
Ultrasound
- Ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of polycystic kidney disease. Findings on an ultrasound diagnostic of polycystic kidney disease include:[1][2]
- Atleast three unilateral or bilateral cysts in patients 15 - 39 years old
- Atleast two cysts in each kidney in patients 40 - 59 years old
- Atleast four cysts in each kidney in patients 60 years of age or older
Note:
- Ultrasonography is the preferred tool for the diagnosis of ADPKD due to its safety profile and low cost.
- In patients with a positive family history, the diagnosis of ADPKD is based on the detection of bilateral fluid-filled renal cysts.
- Ultrasound imaging is highly sensitive and can detect cysts > 1 cm in diameter.[3]
