| Abstract
|
:
|
Non-contradst computed tomography (NCCT) is the diagnostic choice for renal stone disease. knowing the composition of a stone before passage can help to choose a better management. we sought to determine whether the hounsfield unit (HU) measured by NCCT can predict the composition. 180 urinary stones from patients seen at shariati, Kashani and Alzahra CT centers, were submitted to stone analysis, 2012. All scans had been interpreted for HU. primitive statistical findings showed an effect of size on the HU. to avoid confounding bias, hounsfield density (HD: HU/largest transverse diameter) was calcuated. statistical comparisons were performed between compositon with HU and HD. Calcium stones had specific differentiate just calcium from non-calcium stones.
