Stranding of perinephric fat is defined as linear areas of soft tissue attenuation in the perinephric space, which can result from any acute process or injury to the kidney. When unilateral perinephric stranding is identified it is most frequently the result of calyceal rupture or perinephric inflammation. Perinephric stranding is probably the manifestation of increased pressure in the collecting system in the early phase of ureteral obstruction. Perinephric stranding is easily identified on Spiral CT and less commonly seen on IVP.
Perinephric stranding is generally indicative of inflammation or edema around the kidney, often associated with conditions such as pyelonephritis or renal abscess. While it itself does not directly damage the kidney, it can signal underlying issues that may affect kidney function if not addressed. Early diagnosis and treatment are essential to prevent potential complications. Therefore, while perinephric stranding is not inherently "bad," it warrants medical evaluation.
Perinephric stranding refers to the appearance of linear or streaky areas of increased attenuation around the kidney on imaging studies, often indicating inflammation or edema in the surrounding tissues. Fluid around the kidney, or perinephric fluid, may signify various conditions, such as infection (e.g., pyelonephritis), trauma, or malignancy. The presence of both findings can suggest a pathological process affecting the kidney, requiring further evaluation and management.
can a 5 week fetus show on an ultrasound
I suggest you ask the person who did the ultrasound as I have never heard this.
Marine Mammal Stranding Center was created in 1978.
Soft tissue stranding refers to the appearance of thin, linear opacities or densities seen on imaging studies, such as CT scans, indicative of inflammation or edema in the surrounding soft tissues. It often suggests the presence of an underlying pathological process, such as infection, trauma, or malignancy. Stranding can help radiologists and clinicians assess the extent of disease, guide diagnosis, and inform treatment decisions.

A fetus is generally not visible on ultrasound until about 5-6 weeks of pregnancy. At 3 weeks, the embryo is very small and not typically detectable on ultrasound.
nothing can be seen at this point nothing nothing
Renal abscess is a collection of pus within the kidney, typically caused by a bacterial infection. Perinephric abscess is an abscess that forms in the tissue surrounding the kidney. Both conditions usually present with symptoms such as fever, flank pain, and urinary symptoms, and require prompt medical treatment.
It is not likely. The earliest an ultrasound can usually detect pregnancy is about 5 1/2 weeks. Although you may be able to see a little sac (with essentially nothing in it) a heart beat may not be able to be detected. This is nothing to worry about though. Implantation occurs at Week 2 of pregnancy so it is not likely that implantation would be able to be seen with an ultrasound.
