Dr. Keith Roach is a physician at Weill Cornell Medical College and New York Presbyterian Hospital. He writes an educational column on infectious diseases, public health and sports medicine.

DEAR DR. ROACH: I had a routine ultrasound to check my kidneys because my father (who is 80) has kidney disease, and his urologist said that it is genetic and that my sister and I should get a baseline screening. I am 50.
