Quantification of Single-Kidney Function and Volume in Living Kidney Donors Using Dynamic Contrast-Enhanced MRI.
OBJECTIVE The objective of our study was to investigate whether dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) can detect differences and potential adaption in single-kidney parenchymal volume, blood flow, glomerular filtration rate (GFR), and filtration fraction in the remaining kidney of healthy donors compared with nondonors. Further, we evaluated the agreement in donor GFRs measured using DCE-MRI ...
متن کاملBilateral simple ectopic kidney in a cat
Bilateral simple ectopic kidney was diagnosed in an apparently healthy 3-year-old, female domestic short hair cat, incidentally based on radiology and ultrasonography examination. The cat was presented for routine examination without any complaint. In clinical evaluation, no significant abnormal clinical sign was seen except for the absence of both kidneys in their proper location in abdominal ...
متن کاملRelative quantification
Reverse transcription (RT) followed by a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) represents the most powerful technology to amplify and detect trace amounts of mRNA (Heid et al., 1996; Lockey, 1998). To quantify these low abundant expressed genes in any biological matrix the real-time quantitative RT-PCR (qRT-PCR) is the method of choice. Real-time qRT-PCR has advantages compared with conventionally pe...
متن کاملAn Ectopic Pelvic Kidney
BACKGROUND If a kidney does not ascend as it should in normal fetal development, it remains in the pelvic area and is called a pelvic kidney. Often a person with a pelvic kidney will go through his/her whole life unaware of this condition, unless it is discovered during neonatal kidney ultrasound screening or if complications arise later in life due to this or a completely different reason and ...
متن کاملpreliminary study on the kidney elasticity quantification in patients with chronic kidney disease using virtual touch tissue quantification
conclusion vttq can sensitively detect the elasticity changes in patients with ckd, and it can effectively predict renal insufficiency. this technology provides a valuable tool for the assessment of ckd. patients and methods sixty-five patients with ckd and seventy healthy participants were included in this study. a total of 270 kidneys were examined by vttq. the kidney elasticity was expressed...
