How do you treat perinephric stranding?
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.
Is perinephric stranding bad for the kidney?
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.
What is mild nonspecific perinephric stranding?
Mild nonspecific perinephric stranding refers to a subtle increase in echogenicity or density around the kidney observed in imaging studies, such as ultrasound or CT scans. This finding is often associated with inflammation, edema, or other benign conditions, but it is not specific to any one diagnosis. It may indicate a mild inflammatory process or a reaction to nearby pathology, and typically warrants further evaluation if accompanied by other concerning symptoms. However, in many cases, it can be an incidental finding without clinical significance.
What is perinephric stranding and fluid around kidney?
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.
What is periureteral stranding on the right?
Periureteral stranding refers to the presence of increased echogenicity or density in the tissue surrounding the ureter, often seen on imaging studies like ultrasound or CT scans. It typically indicates inflammation or other pathological processes in the surrounding tissues, which can be associated with conditions such as urinary tract infections, kidney stones, or tumors. In the context of "on the right," it suggests that this stranding is observed around the right ureter, potentially indicating localized issues affecting that area. Further evaluation may be necessary to determine the underlying cause and appropriate treatment.
Can a 5 week fetus be seen in an ultrasound?

What does it mean that placental reaction is seen all around in the ultrasound?
I suggest you ask the person who did the ultrasound as I have never heard this.
When was Marine Mammal Stranding Center created?
Marine Mammal Stranding Center was created in 1978.
What is soft tissue stranding?
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.

Can a 3 week old fetus be seen in an ultrasound?
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.
When can you see the point of conception on an ultrasound?
nothing can be seen at this point nothing nothing
