Aim: The present study aimed to assess the diagnostic efficacy of contrast-enhanced voiding urosonography (ceVUS) using SonoVue for evaluating duplex kidneys, and to compare it with fluoroscopic voiding cystourethrography (VCUG).
Material And Methods: Forty-six children with duplex kidneys confirmed by surgical intervention or cystoscopy were included in the study, resulting in a total of 46 duplex kidneys and 46 normal kidneys (138 pyeloureteral units).
Results: The overall sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), and negative predictive value (NPV) of RBUS for diagnosing duplex kidney disease were 73.
