Yes, during a kidney ultrasound, you typically lie on your back, but you may also be asked to turn onto your side. This positioning helps the technician obtain clear images of the kidneys from different angles. The side-lying position can sometimes provide better visualization of certain kidney structures. Always follow the specific instructions given by the ultrasound technician.
