ETA from one of my last posts. Contrast can also be used (air or something I think) to see urates on xray. I don't think they did that in this case. Unless there are others types forming around the urates making them visable, u/s is the better choice.

I was offered a referral when Ellie's bile acids were 47 post with no real symptoms with the stipulation that if she got sick in the month that regular vet tried low protein diet, we were immediately directed to a specialist. When they got to 106, I was pretty much told to go. With bile acids this high and stones, a general vet should really be referring out.
