About X-Ray KUB

KUB Radiography (X-ray KUB) is a simple X-ray examination that is routinely used to evaluate the kidneys, ureters, and urinary bladder. It helps identify any abnormalities, such as urinary stones, urinary tract diseases, or calcification, or the formation of a ‘gas bubble' pattern in the bowels. Digital KUB X-ray is carried out with high-end imaging systems that provide high-level diagnostic images, while maintaining the comfort and safety of the patients.

What is an X-Ray KUB?

X-ray KUB is a rapid, painless, and nondestructive imaging examination used to get pictures of the abdomen, which is where the kidneys, ureters, and bladder are located. It is often performed if a person has abdominal or flank pain, blood in their urine, or if the person has been suspected of having urinary tract stones. This is also frequently ordered to help evaluate the motion of the kidney stone and monitor treatment.

Common Reasons for an X-Ray KUB

  • Suspected kidney stones
  • Flank or lower abdominal pain
  • Blood in the urine (hematuria)
  • Urinary tract obstruction
  • Follow-up of urinary stones
  • Evaluation of bladder stones
  • Assessment of abdominal calcifications
  • Monitoring after urological procedures
