<bold>Fig GU 28-2. Adult polycystic kidney disease.</bold> (A) Parasagittal sonogram of the right kidney (PK) shows a random distribution of multiple cysts that vary dramatically in size. The normal reniform contour is maintained. (B) Parasagittal sonogram in a young, asymptomatic member of the family shows multiple cysts (C<sub>R</sub>, C<sub>L</sub>) in the right kidney (R) and liver (L). (D, diaphragm; H, head.)<sup>2</sup>

<bold>Fig GU 33-1. Chronic renal failure.</bold> Parasagittal sonogram of the right kidney (RK) shows that the echogenicity of renal cortical tissue has increased to such an extent that it is now greater than that of the hepatic parenchyma (L). The renal medullary pyramids (P) are clearly visible in the right kidney. (D, diaphragm; H, head.)<sup>2</sup>
