No-Radiation ultrasound may predict kidney stone treatment success in kids
NCT ID NCT07506031
First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 7 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a special ultrasound technique, called shear wave elastography, can predict how well a non-surgical treatment (ESWL) will break up kidney stones in children. Currently, doctors use CT scans to estimate stone hardness, but these expose children to radiation. The study will include 108 children under 18 with kidney stones. If successful, this approach could reduce the need for CT scans and help doctors choose the best treatment.
