Both kidney are normal in size and parenchymal echogenicityBoth kidneys are normal in size and structural appearance as seen on ultrasound.2. There is pelvocalyceal fullness,both kidneysThe kidney - ureter junction and calyces in the kidney are well seen.3. No lithiasisNo kidney stones.4. No focal solid or cystic massNo abnormal areas seen in kidneys5. Ureters-not visualizedThis is normal as ureters are visualised on ultrasound scan only when obstructed.6. Floating fine internal echoesThis may indicate mild bladder infection.7. Pre void urine - 173 cc . post void urine 11 ccNo obstruction to flow of urine and no retention also.From the above it looks like a mild bladder infection which can be completely treated by drinking lots of water and with a course of antibioticsHope this helps
