[|Human|] Went to Dr. with pain on right side below my breast , sent me to have an Ultra sound, everything was good, but they found a 9mm on my left kidney , now because they see calcification and they could not make out what it was, they want me to have an CT Scan , which makes me nervous because of the radiation. My Dr. says its up to me. What do you think?
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for your query A 9 mm calcific focus in the left kidney is suggestive of a stone. A CT scan examination is the most accurate way to diagnose the condition and plan treatment, if necessary. Newer CT scan devices have much less radiation risk and are well within the yearly permissible radiation dose. I would advise you to undergo the test and consult your doctor with the reports. I hope I have answered your queryThanks Chat Doctor.
