The aim of this study was to assess the potential of dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) MRI
to predict and evaluate functional outcomes after renal artery revascularization for renal …

Purpose To evaluate the current literature to see if the published results of MRI‐glomerular
filtration rate (GFR) stand up to the claim that MRI‐GFR may be used in clinical practice …

PURPOSE: To develop a low-dose magnetic resonance (MR) renographic method
performed with and without an angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor and in …

A three-dimensional magnetic resonance (MR) renographic method to measure single
kidney glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and split renal function was developed that is based …

Background. Evaluation of potential kidney donors requires the assessment of both kidney
anatomy and function. In this prospective study, we sought to expand the diagnostic yield of …

Nuclear medicine and MRI provide information about renal perfusion, function (glomerular
filtration rate), and drainage. Some tracers that are used in nuclear medicine (technetium …

In this section, authors from Mansoura describe their experience with MRI as the sole
method for the morphological and functional evaluation of live kidney donors. They …

Contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance urography (MRU) is a promising tool in the
evaluation of the renal collecting system, but it can be limited by T2* effects resulting from …

Applications of diffusion-weighted (DW) magnetic resonance (MR) imaging outside the brain
have gained increasing importance in recent years. Owing to technical improvements in MR …

Renal MR contrast enhancement depends on the timing of image acquisition. Limited
human trials have demonstrated efficacy of renal artery stents on salvage of renal function …
