What does a Nephrologist do?
A nephrologist (گردے کا ڈاکٹر) works to diagnose kidney disorders after performing a complete physical exam, taking the medical & surgical history, family history, drug history, and then running some investigations. In general, a nephrologist orders lab tests like complete urine culture & exam, CT scan, ultrasound, and kidney biopsy.
Urine culture is used to test the level of protein, glucose, minerals, or other waste products in the urine. This test gives information about the inflammation in the kidneys and also tells about the amount of blood in the urine. Ultrasound is an imaging technique that uses sound waves to generate a picture of the organs, giving an idea about any obstruction or masses in the kidneys.
CT scan uses x-rays for forming pictures of the kidneys, which are much more detailed than ultrasound, and helps diagnose obstruction due to tumors, stones or any other cause. Lastly, biopsy procedures are used to obtain a tissue sample of the organ, for a more detailed analysis of the organ. Biopsy samples are obtained with needles and are usually ultrasound or CT-guided.
The investigations and the medical history help a nephrologist diagnose what is wrong with the kidneys, and then formulate a treatment plan accordingly.
