About This Test
CT-KUB (Computed Tomography of the Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder) is a fast, non-invasive scan that provides detailed images of the urinary system without the use of contrast. It is most commonly performed to detect kidney stones, assess urinary obstruction, or evaluate flank pain. A plain CT-KUB offers high accuracy in identifying even very small stones and helps guide appropriate treatment. The scan is quick, painless, and typically completed within a few minutes, making it an essential first-line investigation for acute renal colic and other urinary complaints.
