Özet
The diagnosis of renal inflammatory diseases is primarily based on a combination of clinical and laboratory findings such as bacteriuria, pyuria, positive urine culture, and leukocytosis. In general, imaging is not required for diagnosis and treatment of uncomplicated infections in adult patients. However, patients suspected of having an acute renal infection and those who are not responding to intravenous antibiotic treatment within 72 h require imaging. Imaging of urinary tract infection (UTI) in children is more important than in adults because of the much higher potential for significant irreversible renal damage with sequelae of hypertension and chronic renal failure. © Springer-Verlag London 2013.
