Lena nodded. “Mrs. Kowalski in room 4. She’s got flank pain, hematuria, and a history of recurrent UTIs. My exam suggests possible renal calculus or transitional cell carcinoma. But before I decide on a cystoscopy versus a CT urogram, I need to match her symptoms to the right diagnostic exam — like the book says.”

Matt flipped through his own copy. “Chapter 20… matching diagnostic exams… here. They list: intravenous pyelogram, retrograde urethrogram, renal ultrasound, cystourethroscopy, and MRI of the kidneys.”

Lena smiled. “Textbook matching — but applied.”
