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.

Performance of CEUS result and comparison to DMSA
DMSA will be used as gold standard to evaluate CEUS test performance. Sensitivity and specificity of CEUS renal scarring detection will be calculated accordingly. Bivariate and multivariate analyses will be completed to compare patient characteristics between those with good and poor CEUS performance to investigate if CEUS performs better in patients with specific covariates
3 months after final participant completes participation
Participants will undergo a contrast enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) using Lumason
Lumason will be used as the contrast agent. Standard Lumason dose will be used: 0.03mL/kg up to a maximum dose of 2.4 milliliter (mL) per injection
