Female, 41 years old. Reason: Characterization of right renal cyst partially seen on MRI of lumbar spine This exam is significantly technically limited due to patient's body habitus.RIGHT KIDNEY: The right kidney measures 10.4 cm, with normal cortical echotexture. A lower pole cystic lesion measures 2.9 x 2.6 x 2.7 cm, with apparent internal echoes and complexity. No shadowing calculi or hydronephrosis.LEFT KIDNEY: The left kidney measures 11.4 cm, with normal cortical echotexture. No shadowing calculi or hydronephrosis.URINARY BLADDER: The bladder is incompletely distended.OTHER: No significant abnormalities noted.
A cystic lesion in the lower pole of the right kidney shows possible internal echoes and complexity, although these findings may represent artifact related to patient body habitus. This lesion is still considered incompletely characterized on this exam, and a dedicated CT exam is recommended for further characterization.
