Homeopathy and Kidney Stones

Diagnosis of stones in urinary tract is done by using X-rays, and other advanced scanning methods.

In most cases kidney stones are detected during a general health check up or the diagnosis of another health condition.

X-ray of kidneys and urinary bladder or a sonogram usually helps to pin point 90% of the stones. Pure uric acid stones are difficult to detect.

Excretory urograms or intravenous pyelography reveals the entire urinary system. A radio opaque liquid is injected (sodium diatrizoate) slowly. Radiograms taken after every 10 minutes reveal the physiological and anatomical details of the kidney. Stone in the ureter is seen as a dense shadow.

Ultrasound of the kidneys reveals pathological changes. Large stones can be easily detected while even the position of smaller stones can be observed.
