Roger K. Low
Dr. Low is a clinical professor of urology whose practice focuses on evaluating and treating patients with urolithiasis. Dr. Low’s current research interests include investigating the effects of bariatric surgery on stone risk and imaging of patients with urolithiasis. He is involved in two clinical trials.
Effects of Bariatric Surgery on Urolithiasis Risk and Renal Function
CT imaging has quickly become the gold standard for evaluating patients suspected of having renal colic. Concern exists regarding possible over utilization of CT imaging and ionizing radiation exposure. We are involved in a multi-institutional study comparing the use of ultrasonography vs. CT imaging of patients suspected of having renal colic.
Optimal Imaging for Patients Suspected of Renal Colic
