First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026
Summary
This study follows 1,600 people with small kidney stones (4 mm or less) to see how often they pass without help. Participants report symptoms, give blood, and get a follow-up CT scan. The goal is to find out if pain, stone size, or location can predict natural passage within 4 to 8 weeks.
