Official title
Does Contrast-Enhanced Ultrasound Positively Influence Selection of Biopsy Sites When Evaluating Transplant Kidneys?
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a pilot study to investigate whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) may help evaluate segmental differences in renal perfusion better than Doppler Ultrasound and thus help direct the biopsy to the most abnormal part of the renal cortex. This should maximize detection and increase the odds of demonstrating the true grade/severity of the histopathological abnormality.
