Kidney and Ureteral Stones Treatment by Dr M Gopichand at #kimshospitals
Diagnosis If your doctor suspects that you have a kidney stone, you may have diagnostic tests and procedures, such as: Blood testing. Blood tests may reveal too much calcium or uric acid and CREATININE in your blood. Blood test results help monitor the health of your kidneys and may lead your doctor to check for other medical conditions. Urine testing. The 24-hour urine collection test may show that you're excreting too many stone-forming minerals or too few stone-preventing substances. For this test, your doctor may request that you perform two urine collections over two consecutive days. Imaging. Imaging tests may show kidney stones in your urinary tract.

Prostate check by Dr M Gopichand
Prostate cancer screening: Should you get a PSA test? Making the decision to have a PSA test depends on a variety of factors. Here are some tips that can help you make a good decision.

Prostate cancer screening can help identify cancer early on, when treatment is most effective. But it isn't perfect. Some men may find that the downsides of prostate cancer screening outweigh the potential benefits. Ultimately, whether to have prostate cancer screening is something you should decide after discussing it with your UROLOGIST considering your risk factors and weighing your personal preferences. Here's information to help you prepare for a conversation with your doctor. What is PSA?
