Do outcomes for patients with suspected nephrolithiasis differ based on the initial imaging? However, with ultrasonography becoming more prevalent in EDs, it may be possible that initial imaging may avoid this radiation risk and still have similar outcomes for patients. Would you be satisfied with only US and no follow-up CT?
