Abstract

Abstract Case report A case of a 43-year-old woman presenting with acute left flank pain is reported. Method and result Point-of-care ultrasound utilizing color Doppler revealed a twinkling artifact at the left ureterovesicular junction, consistent with a ureterovesicular stone. The sonographic findings and significance of the twinkling artifact are described.
