My grandad just had tests done at hospital and he told me that the doctor told him that he may have a shadow on his kidney & they have made arrangements for him to have a camera inside of him to take a look.
Does anyone know what a shadow on the kidney is and what is it caused from?
Ive never heard of it before and I am worried about him.
Is it serious?

Thanks .......
