I know they are between the levels of T12 and L4 but I am having to almost always take another shot because I can't seem to easily find them whenever I do a KUB. The bottom of the image always includes the pubic symphysis by palpating the greater trochanter but I am never confident that my KUB has the top of the L/R kidneys when I clearly see T11 just because it's hard for me to distinguish the kidneys from superimposed GI tract anatomy. I think that I see a ureter or medullar pyramids but I just can't seem to be 100% about it. Any advice on how you distinguish both kidneys from the other anatomy?
