In a prospective study, we assessed the usefulness of fluoroscopy in visualizing the ureters during intravenous urography. The percentage of ureter visualized was compared on radiographs acquired with and without fluoroscopic guidance. The length of ureter shown was significantly greater with fluoroscopic spot filming than with traditional urography. We recommend adjunctive fluoroscopy to enhance ureteral visualization during intravenous urography.
