Brief Summary:
In this research study the investigators want to study a safe, radiation-free technique known as contrast-enhanced ultrasound that may improve the ability to diagnose or evaluate renal scarring compared to regular ultrasound. This technique requires injection into a vein of a small amount of contrast material called Lumason. Contrast material is a type of dye that helps the investigators image the structures in the body more clearly. If this technique is successful, the need for DMSA studies may be avoided to diagnose or evaluate kidney scarring. DMSA is a more expensive test, causes radiation exposure, may require sedation and/or injection of contrast agents with the potential to cause allergic reactions.
