Quantification of renal blood flow with contrast-enhanced ultrasound [PDF]
OBJECTIVESThe goal of this study was to determine the ability of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEU) to quantify renal tissue perfusion.BACKGROUNDThe kinetics of tracers used to assess renal perfusion are often complicated by countercurrent exchange ...

Kidney oxygenation, perfusion and blood flow in people with and without type 1 diabetes [PDF]
Background We used magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to study kidney energetics in persons with and without type 1 diabetes (T1D). Methods In a cross-sectional study, 15 persons with T1D and albuminuria and 15 non-diabetic controls (CONs) underwent ...

Low Arginine Plasma Levels do not Aggravate Renal Blood Flow after Experimental Renal Ischaemia/reperfusion [PDF]
Background: ischaemic renal dysfunction is present in many clinical settings, including cardiovascular surgery. Renal hypoperfusion seems to be the most important pathophysiologic mechanism.

Partial renal coverage in EVAR causes unfavorable renal flow patterns in an infrarenal aneurysm model [PDF]
Objective: To achieve an optimal sealing zone during EVAR, the intended positioning of the proximal end of the endograft fabric should be as close as possible to the most caudal edge of the renal arteries. Some endografts exhibit a small offset between the radiopaque markers and the proximal fabric edge.
