Monitoring

If you are considered to be at high risk of kidney problems (for example, if you have spina bifida or spinal cord injury) you should be offered ongoing regular ultrasound scans of the kidneys (every 1 or 2 years) to check for problems.

If you are at high risk of urinary complications (for example, if you have spina bifida or spinal cord injury) you may be offered regular urodynamic investigations (see Finding out what is wrong) to check for problems.
