In Fig. 151 the ureter is markedlydilated above a point of obstruction 6 or 7 cm. above thebladder. The pelvis is irregularly dilated and the shadowsof cortical necrosis are seen extending in various Fig. 152 the ureter is markedly dilated as the result of astricture in the lower ureter as well as of inflammation. Thesmall size of the pelvis may be explained by the fact thatthe infection is scattered throughout the parenchyma andis not accompanied by any great degree of necrosis. CHAPTER VII RENAL STONE The greatest problems in the interpretation of shadows inthe kidney area are: Their identification (whether they areintrarenal or extrarenal) and
