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 …

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the role, safety, and effectiveness of Doppler ultrasound-guided
percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL). METHODS: The present study was a prospectively …

Sonographic evaluation of the genitourinary system is a fast, safe, and effective means to
detect renal disease. In conjunction with other modalities, Doppler can depict a variety of …
