Patterns of calcification in renal tuberculosis. CT is the most sensitive modality for detecting renal calcification. a Punctate dystrophic calcifications (arrow) within caseating granulomas. b Dependent calculi (arrow) within obstructed, dilated calyces. c Dystrophic calcifications (arrow) along the walls a cavitary lesion. d Fine, speckled calcification (block arrows) at the tip of calyces in a triangular configuration. e Large obstructive upward pointing calculus (arrow) in the renal pelvis, secondary to pelviureteric junction stenosis. f Lobar-pattern (arrow, putty kidney) calcifications in end-stage disease
