Initially, the renal resistive index (RRI) was investigated with the aim of improving diagnosis
in kidney diseases, but this goal was not met. Recently, many papers have highlighted the …

The article presents changeability of renal resistive index (RRI) in various cardiovascular
diseases and considers the usefulness of the marker and interpretational difficulties of the …

Background: The noninvasive assessment of renal hemodynamics is currently possible by
assessing the renal resistive index (RRI) derived from intrarenal Doppler arterial waveforms …

Renal resistive index (RRI) measured by Doppler ultrasonography is associated with
cardiovascular events and mortality in hypertensive, diabetic, and elderly patients. We …

The RRI was initially proposed for the diagnosis of various forms of renal disease. One of the
earliest prospective uses of the RRI was in the prediction of kidney function outcomes …

The use of renal resistive indices (RRIs) for the study of renal microcirculation has in the past
been proposed for the identification of renal organ damage or even to specifically identify …

From growing data from the literature emerges that so-called ecoDoppler “Renal” Resistive
Indexes (RRI) are not only specific markers of kidney damage and indicators of renal …

The renal resistive index (RRI) is measured by Doppler sonography in an intrarenal artery,
and is the difference between the peak systolic and end-diastolic blood velocities divided by …

BACKGROUND: Increased renal resistance detected by ultrasound (US) Doppler has been
reported in severe essential hypertension (EH) and recently was shown to correlate with the …

We evaluated the relationship between renal resistive index (RRI) of the intrarenal
vasculature and cardiovascular (CV) organ damage such as left ventricular hypertrophy …
