Role of ultrasound in the investigation of haematuria after normal intravenous urography and cystoscopy.
The initial investigation of haematuria in the adult includes intravenous urography and cystoscopy. If these investigations reveal no cause for haematuria we propose that renal ultrasound should be considered, and illustrate this with two series of patients from different hospitals (147 from St. Peter's Hospitals, 35 from St. James' Hospital, Balham, London) with primary adenocarcinoma of the kidney.
