Determining cellular and biochemical function of a novel adhesion molecule in kidneys. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Acute kidney injury is an abrupt loss of kidney function that develops in short time with limited effective treatments other than kidney transplantation. We have identified TMIGD1 (Transmembrane immuno- globulin domain 1) as a novel receptor expressed in

Association of urinary uromodulin with kidney function decline and mortality: the health ABC study
. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
BackgroundUrine uromodulin (uUMOD) is a protein secreted by the kidney tubule. Recent studies have suggested that higher uUMOD may be associated with improved kidney and mortality outcomes.MethodsUsing a case-cohort design, we evaluated the association ...

Extracting Three Dimensional Surface Model of Human Kidney from the Visible Human Data Set using Free Software [PDF]

open access: yesLeonardo Electronic Journal of Practices and Technologies (LEJPT), Issue 20 (January-June), 2012 (11), p. 115-126 [ISSN: 1583-1078], 2013
Three dimensional digital model of a representative human kidney is needed for a surgical simulator that is capable of simulating a laparoscopic surgery involving kidney. Buying a three dimensional computer model of a representative human kidney, or reconstructing a human kidney from an image sequence using commercial software, both involve (sometimes ...

Semi-Automatic Segmentation of Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidneys using Random Forests [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
This paper presents a method for 3D segmentation of kidneys from patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and severe renal insufficiency, using computed tomography (CT) data. ADPKD severely alters the shape of the kidneys due to non-uniform formation of cysts.

Automatic Renal Segmentation in DCE-MRI using Convolutional Neural Networks [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2017
Kidney function evaluation using dynamic contrast-enhanced MRI (DCE-MRI) images could help in diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases of children. Automatic segmentation of renal parenchyma is an important step in this process. In this paper, we propose a time and memory efficient fully automated segmentation method which achieves high segmentation ...
