Medullary sponge kidney using multidetector row CT
Contrast-enhanced maximum intensity projection 3-dimensional image from multidetector-row computed tomographic urogram shows characteristic papillary blush (arrows) associated with scattered calculi within the dilated collecting tubules. The computed tomographic demonstration is equivalent to the well-documented intravenous pyelography findings.
CT: computed tomography.
