title: Magnetic resonance urography in the evaluation of acute flank pain.
abstract: We report our clinical experience with magnetic resonance urography in 13 patients. This noninvasive relatively new application of magnetic resonance to initial radiologic evaluation of patients with acute flank pain offers valuable diagnostic information and may provide additional support in defining the need for possible further therapeutic intervention in selected cases.
