Calcification in the right lower pelvis
Posted , 2 users are following.
Hello,
I recently had an X-ray and Ct done at the emergency room. Findings on Xray were I was constipated but due to the amount of pressure and pain I am still having I am curious to what noting of a calcification and appendicolith means? See below
Finding- There is a 1 to 2 mm calcification in the
right lower pelvis, which corresponds with an appendicolith on
the prior CT
Well, there was never any calcification noted on the CT scan findings. I am sure it means nothing but can anyone tell me what this means?
Thank you
