N2  - Imaging of renal stones is an important diagnostic tool as well as an Iinitial step in deciding the therapeutic option to be used for management. Imaging modalities for these patients include: ultrasonography, plain radiography, CT and MRI. CT of the abdomen and pelvis can be considered as the most accurate diagnostic tool used to evaluate nephrolithiasis patients. Unique radiographic characteristic of increased renal papillary density was found in patients with kidney stones and this radiographic finding supports the role of renal papillary deposits in the pathophysiology of stone formation
