A structured ultrasound kidneys, ureters and bladder (kub) report template used for ultrasound lower abdomen / pelvis, ultrasound renal tract (kub), prostate with bladder and residual urine. It covers 6 sections and 46 fields, and includes a one-click normal preset.

Demonstration content. Review and approve this template with your clinical lead before clinical use. Reference values shown in SonoTez are notes only and are never applied automatically.

Technique

Real-time transabdominal ultrasound of the renal tract was performed.

Sample normal ultrasound kidneys, ureters and bladder (kub) report

This is the text SonoTez generates when the doctor applies the template's normal preset. Measurements are left for the doctor to enter.

Technique

Real-time transabdominal ultrasound of the renal tract was performed.

Writing the impression

Answer the clinical question first, list the remaining findings in order of importance, and keep anything new out of the impression. If a structure was not fully seen, say so and give the reason. See how to write an ultrasound report for wording and certainty terms.
