Kidney Pressure Measurement for Urinary Evaluation

In this procedure, the provider connects an indwelling ureteral catheter or an existing nephrostomy or pyelostomy tube to a manometer line to measure the pressure of any fluids or any variation in pressure between fluids in the kidneys and ureters. This procedure is mainly performed to examine any blockage or obstruction, dilatation, or expansion of the upper urinary tract. Choose a location to see hospital-reported price summaries.
