What is a voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG)? A voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) allows us to evaluate your child's urethra and bladder size, shape, and capacity. This procedure uses x-rays and a contrasting agent that is administered by catheter into your childâs bladder. A VCUG can also help us determine whether your child has reflux â a condition where urine from the bladder goes upward back to the kidneys.
Finally, after five years of searching, on August 30, 1992, Jewitt and Luu announced the Discovery of the candidate Kuiper belt object (15760) 1992 QB1. Six months later, they discovered a second object in the region, (181708) 1993 FW.
The Kuiper Belt (also known as the Kuiper-Edgeworth Belt) is a disk-shaped region found in the outer solar system, past the orbit of Neptune. It extends from the orbit of Neptune at around 30 Astronomical Units (AU) out to around 50 AU from the Sun and contains hundreds of millions of small icy bodies that are thought to be left over material from the formation of the outer planets.
