Hi all,

We just scanned a 14yo MN DSH with diffuse thickened small intesitnal walls with loss of layering (suspecting neoplasia/lymphoma) But when we scanned the left kidney there was an area of the medulla that appeared hypoecoic and we just wanted to make sure if this is something significant. The cortex at that level looks thinner and so the question is, is this hypoechoic area normal or is there pathology there? Thanks for any input.

Cheers

Veronica
