Calculi (stones) of the kidneys and ureters may be detected by ultrasound. A kidney ultrasound may be performed to assist in placement of needles used to biopsy (obtain a tissue sample) the kidneys, to drain fluid from a cyst or abscess, or to place a drainage tube.
Generally, a kidney ultrasound follows this process: 1  You will be asked to remove any jewelry or other objects that may get in the way of the scan. 2  You may be asked to remove clothing.  You will lie on an exam table on your belly and you will be told when to move positions for different kidney views.
