An ultrasound kidney scan is a safe and non-invasive imaging test that uses high-frequency sound waves to evaluate the size and location of the kidneys and nearby structures. This procedure can detect kidney abnormalities, such as cysts, tumours, and obstructions.

Urological Evaluation & Surgery
Ultrasound of the Kidneys
Urinary Stone Treatment
Urinary stones are solid mineral deposits that typically form in the kidneys. Depending on their size, these stones may pass through the urinary tract or become lodged, causing severe discomfort. Treatment options for urinary stones range from medical therapies and minimally invasive extracorporeal shock wave lithotripsy (ESWL) to percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) for larger stones.
Kidney Surgery
Kidney surgery, also called a nephrectomy, involves the removal of all or part of a kidney to treat kidney cancer, tumours, and other end-stage kidney conditions. This surgical procedure can be performed through traditional open or endoscopic (keyhole) surgery, including laparoscopic and robotic-assisted approaches.
Bladder Cancer Surgery
Bladder cancer treatment often involves surgical intervention. Depending on the type and stage of bladder cancer, surgical options may include transurethral resection of bladder tumours (TURBT) for small tumour removal and cystectomy, which removes only the cancerous portion of the bladder or the entire bladder and nearby lymph nodes.
Bladder Stone Removal
Bladder stones occur when minerals in concentrated urine crystallise and harden due to difficulty emptying the bladder. Bladder stone removal often involves transurethral cystolitholapaxy, where a laser or ultrasonic device is used to break down the stones. Other options may include percutaneous suprapubic cystolitholapaxy for larger stones or open cystostomy for more severe cases.
Prostate/Enlarged Prostate Surgery
With advancing age, men commonly experience prostate enlargement, which can lead to urinary difficulties such as frequent urination and weak urine flow. Depending on its severity, an enlarged prostate can be treated using minimally invasive procedures or surgery, such as transurethral resection of the prostate (TURP).
Laparoscopic Urological Surgery
Laparoscopic urological surgery uses a few tiny incisions and microsurgical instruments to perform procedures on the urinary tract. This approach offers numerous advantages, including faster recovery times, reduced pain, and shorter hospital stays than traditional open surgery.

What Is Urology?
Urology is a specialist field of medicine that focuses on the male and female urinary systems, which include the kidneys, bladder, adrenal glands, ureter, and urethra. It also pays extra attention to the male reproductive system, which includes the penis, testes, scrotum, and prostate glands. Doctors who specialise in this field are called urologists.
Common conditions that urologists diagnose and treat include: kidney stones, urinary tract infections, bladder problems, kidney cancer; as well as prostate and testicular cancer, erectile dysfunction, and an enlarged prostate gland.
Our urology clinic is led by Dr Damian Png, an experienced Singapore urologist who is particularly skilled in the subspecialty field of reconstructive urology and endourology (minimally invasive urology). Reconstructive urology centres around repairing and restoring normal function to the urinary and genital systems. On the other hand, endourology utilises small surgical tools and instruments to diagnose and treat urological problems either through natural body openings or tiny incisions, thereby reducing the need for traditional open surgery.
