Objective- to assess the normal ultrasonographic findings of kidney in the Raiini goat. Design- Experimental study. Animals- 10 female Raiini goats. Procedures- .Necropsy was carried out and Kidneys were measured in length, width, and diameter after fixation in formalin. Ultrasonography was carried out by longitudinal and transversal planes to evaluate all renal structures. Echogenicity and ...

introduction: renal length measurement is an important diagnostic clue in several urinary tract abnormalities. although ultra sonography is the most frequent used modality for renal size estimation, renal diameter assessment by 99mtc-dmsa scintigraphy is of great value. by now, pointing to the renal size in the 99mtc-dmsa scintigraphy report has not been recommended by guidelines. if the validi...

introduction: renal length as measured on sonography is fundamental in diagnosis & follow up of renal diseases, and there’s increasing use of this kind of examination nowadays. some radiologists believe in the effect of position on renal measurements. regarding the above mentioned facts and in order to compare effect of patient position on sonographic measurement of renal length, this study was...

abstract   background: hydronephrosis is the most common congenital condition that is detected by prenatal ultrasonography. moreover, the widespread use of prenatal ultrasonography results in an increased recognition of fetal hydronephrosis. prenatal hydronephrosis is diagnosed at an incidence of 1:100 to 1:500 by ultrasonographic studies. the presence of hydronephrosis is not synonymous with o...

The role of ultrasonography in diagnosing blunt renal trauma is uncertain because it is much less sensitive in detecting parenchymal organ injuries. Indirect evidence such as perinephric haematoma may be easier to identify by ultrasonography and it is highly suggestive of underlying renal parenchymal injury. A patient with significant renal injuries diagnosed by bedside ultrasonography is repor...

background endothelial injury is a well-known complication in chronic kidney disease (ckd) and hemodialysis. one of the sites in which early vascular changes may be detected is the retina. of course, these flow changes may not be detected in ophthalmologic exams, but it seems that color doppler sonography of retinal arteries may be helpful in these cases. objectives in previous studies on ckd p...
