Calcified plaque in aorta in NCCT KUB
Age of my father is 75 years.
NCCT KUB was done to find out any kidney stone as my father was having severe lower back pain.
In NCCT KUB an additional finding was reported and highlighted in bold "Calcified plaque seen in aorta" but nothing mentioned about Calcified plaque in "Impression section" of NCCT KUB report..
I sharing Impression section wordings:
"Impression:
Findings are suggestive of:
Right kidney is slightly edematous and shows mild hydronephrosis with dilated renal pelvis.
Right sided moderate and left sided mild perinephric fat stranding with thickening of right perinephric and lateroconal fascia s/o pyelonephritis.
Mild prominence of right upper ureter likely due to ascending infection, however no obvious ureteric calculus seen.
Left sided tiny renal concretion and renal cortical cyst.
Prostatomegaly.
Slightly thick walled UB ? Cystitis.
ADV. Urine R/M."
I am concerned about this additional finding of "Calcified plaque seen in aorta",please suggest.

The finding of a calcified plaque in the aorta should be evaluated further. I recommend you consult a cardiothoracic or vascular surgeon for a detailed assessment and appropriate advice.
