Popis: | Duplex scanning is an inexpensive, noninvasive method of following renal transplant function. It can accurately define degrees of renal artery stenosis, and it can identify perirenal and perivascular fluid collections. Duplex scanning can provide less-specific information regarding changes in intrarenal vascular impedance that can assist in the diagnosis of acute rejection. It is an important initial method for following patients after renal transplantation. |
