Renal fibrosis (RF) is an indicator for progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Although
diabetic nephropathy (DN) is the leading cause of CKD and end-stage renal disease in …

Objectives The aim of this study was to investigate whether magnetic resonance (MR)
diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) allows assessment of renal pathologies in a rat model of …

Purpose Renal fibrosis is a hallmark of progressive renal disease; however, current clinical
tests are insufficient for assessing renal fibrosis. Here we evaluated the utility of quantitative …

Background Renal fibrosis (RF) is a well-known marker for chronic kidney disease (CKD)
progression, including chronic renal injury after renal transplantation. However, invasive …

Introduction To assess if parameters in intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) and diffusion
tensor imaging (DTI) can be used to evaluate early renal fibrosis in a mouse model of …

Aim Renal fibrosis (RF) is a well‐known marker of chronic kidney disease (CKD)
progression. However, renal biopsy is an available tool for evaluation of RF, non‐invasive …

Aim To assess the performance of diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for
the assessment of renal fibrosis in chronic kidney disease (CKD), with histopathology as a …

Aim To investigate the clinical value of diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) in assessing renal
function changes in diabetic patients with early-stage chronic kidney disease (CKD), and the …

Background Renal interstitial fibrosis is one of the most common pathways in the
progression of chronic kidney disease (CKD). Noninvasive evaluation of interstitial fibrosis …

Background: Renal fibrosis is a key driver of progression in chronic kidney disease (CKD).
Recent advances in diagnostic imaging techniques have shown promising results for the …
