KUB – Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder in Pink

“Kidneys, Ureters, and Bladder in Pink” is abdominal X-ray of the abdomen after contrast injection shows the kidneys, calyces, renal pelvis, ureters and urinary bladder.  The pink hue softens the classical black and white X-ray, but is in contrast to obvious skeletal structures, including the lumbar spine, and pelvic bones. The orange color also has a seasonal feel of the summer and hence the title.
