Patients with spinal cord damage require an expert urological assessment at regular intervals. Seventy-five patients with neurogenic bladder dysfunction associated with spinal paralysis attending for routine assessment of the upper urinary tract had both intravenous urography (IVU) and renal ultrasonography. The combination of a plain radiography of the abdomen and an ultrasound scan of the kidneys was found to be a cheap, safe and reliable alternative to intravenous urography for the regular follow-up of these patients.
脊髓损伤患者需要定期接受专业的泌尿外科评估。75例因脊髓麻痹导致神经源性膀胱功能障碍而前来接受上尿路常规评估的患者接受了静脉尿路造影（IVU）和肾脏超声检查。对于这些患者的定期随访，腹部平片和肾脏超声检查相结合被发现是一种比静脉尿路造影更便宜、安全且可靠的替代方法。
