Application of Ultrasound Elastography for Chronic Allograft Dysfunction in Kidney Transplantation.

Journal of ultrasound in medicine : official journal of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine

Wang Z, Yang H, Suo C, Wei J, Tan R, Gu M.
PMID: 28503746
J Ultrasound Med. 2017 Sep;36(9):1759-1769. doi: 10.1002/jum.14221. Epub 2017 May 15.

Interstitial fibrosis is the main characteristic of chronic allograft dysfunction, which remains the key factor affecting long-term allograft survival after kidney transplantation. Ultrasound elastography (UE), including real-time elastography, transient elastography, and acoustic radiation force impulse, has been applied widely...

Radiological imaging of the GI tract after bariatric surgery.

Gastrointestinal endoscopy

Varghese JC, Roy-Choudhury SH.

Gastrointest Endosc. 2009 Dec;70(6):1176-81. doi: 10.1016/j.gie.2009.06.025. Epub 2009 Oct 20.

BACKGROUND: Obesity is becoming epidemic in proportion and is leading to considerable morbidity and mortality in the community. Bariatric surgery offers one tested solution to sustained weight loss and comorbidity reduction. However, it is associated with a significant number...

Challenges and Considerations When Using Shear Wave Elastography to Evaluate the Transplanted Kidney, With Pictorial Review.

Journal of ultrasound in medicine : official journal of the American Institute of Ultrasound in Medicine

Early H, Aguilera J, Cheang E, McGahan J.
PMID: 28471017
J Ultrasound Med. 2017 Sep;36(9):1771-1782. doi: 10.1002/jum.14217. Epub 2017 May 04.

The gold standard in evaluating renal allograft dysfunction has traditionally been renal biopsy. However, not only does biopsy come with inherent risks, the time frame from biopsy to detecting renal dysfunction is often inefficient. It is therefore advantageous to...

Incisional Hernia Repair: What the Radiologist Needs to Know.

AJR. American journal of roentgenology

Parikh KR, Al-Hawary M, Millet JD, Burney R, Finks J, Maturen K.
PMID: 29023150

OBJECTIVE: Incisional hernias are becoming more prevalent with increases in the obesity of the population and the complexity of abdominal surgeries. Radiologists' understanding of these hernias is limited. This article examines abdominal wall anatomy, surgical techniques, the role of...

Functional MRI in transplanted kidneys.

Abdominal radiology (New York)

Renal transplant evaluation: multimodality imaging of post-transplant complications.

The British journal of radiology

Ghonge NP, Goyal N, Vohra S, Chowdhury V.
PMID: 34233470
Br J Radiol. 2021 Aug 01;94(1124):20201253. doi: 10.1259/bjr.20201253. Epub 2021 Jul 08.

With advancements in surgical techniques and immuno-suppression, renal transplantation is established as the most effective treatment option in patients with end-stage renal disease. Early detection of renal allograft complications is important for long-term graft survival. Late clinical presentation often...
