2025年2月21日 · Vesicoureteric reflux (VUR) grading divides vesicoureteric reflux (VUR) according to the height of reflux up the ureters and degree of dilatation of the ureters: It is important to note that each side may have a different grade of reflux. 1. Ralph Weissleder. Primer of Diagnostic Imaging with CD-ROM. (2006) ISBN: 0323040683. 2. Wolfgang Dähnert.

VUR is graded according to severity from grade 1 (mild) to grade 5 (severe). The level of severity is determined by urine flow and the extent of the associated dilation. In Grade I VUR the urine flows back into one or both of the ureters but does not reach the kidney.

2023年6月6日 · A VCUG, or voiding cystourethrogram, is a type of X-ray that tests for bladder and urethral abnormalities. VCUG mainly checks for ureteral reflux, which can lead to kidney damage. Infants, children and adults can have a VCUG test. Your test results tell your provider what kind of treatment you need.

Classification of vesicoureteral reflux using the VCUG imaging results (Wingen et al., 1999): Grade I: reflux into a non-dilated ureter. Grade II: reflux into the renal pelvis without dilatation. Grade III: reflux into the renal pelvis, moderate dilatation of …

Voiding cystourethrograhy (VCUG) is the modality of choice to diagnose vesicoureteral reflux (VUR). Although grading of VUR is essential for prognosis and clinical decision-making, the inter-observer reliability for grading has been shown to vary substantially.

Vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and urinary tract infections (UTI) may detrimentally affect the overall health and renal function in affected children. This clinical guideline covers assessment, initial management, surgical treatment, and follow-up management of pediatric patients with such disorders.

2014年8月12日 · VUR is graded between 1 (mild) to 5 (worst). The grade is based on how far the urine backs up and how wide the ureter is. Children who have lower grades of VUR (1-2) found early in childhood have a good chance of outgrowing it within 1 to 5 years.

2021年3月24日 · The grade of the reflux is evaluated from the x-ray pictures taken during your child’s VCUG. This grading system allows for your child’s doctor to determine the appropriate treatment. Below are some image examples of different grades of reflux. Grade 1: reflux limited to the ureters. Grade 2: reflux to the renal collecting system without ...

2023年11月26日 · 膀胱尿道攝影（voiding cystourethrography, VCUG）並可檢查其他下泌尿道構造的異常，如後尿道瓣膜、尿道狹窄、或膀胱憩室，最常見的適應症為小兒膀胱輸尿管逆流（Vesicoureteral reflux, VUR）。

VCUG: VCUG is a standard imaging test used for the diagnosis of VUR. It offers detailed anatomical information, enabling determining the presence/absence of VUR, and also the severity grade according to the international classification. 36 , 37 , 38 VCUG is required for assessment of the lower urinary tract, as well as diagnosis of VUR. 20 , 23 ...
