Normal Renal Anatomy
In the normal kidney blood is filtered, urine produced and then begins passage through the urinary collecting system.
Under normal circumstances the urine travels through the collecting system and into the bladder so that no urine is seen by ultrasound anywhere other than the bladder. When we see urine in the other parts of the collecting system, this suggests that there is an abnormality somewhere in the collection system.
