Kidney Stone Scan Surgery Cost

What is a KUB scan? 

Based on the symptoms the healthcare provider may suggest different types of scans to diagnose the stones. They might suggest an ultrasound as it is a safe, quick, and easy procedure to detect stones. They might also recommend a CT scan to detect tiny stones that other imaging tests may not pick up. They might also suggest an X-Ray. However, it is possible that an X-Ray may miss the smaller pieces. Therefore, the doctor may also suggest some additional scans with it to provide proper medical care.
