Abstract

A tool for using conventional ultrasound techniques for renal fibrosis assessment, particularly in cases of chronic kidney disease. Patient parameters such as age are combined with ultrasonically determined parameters both morphological (e.g. renal length) and hemodynamic (e.g. end-diastolic velocity of circulation in the interlobal renal artery) to evaluate the risk of a patient displaying moderate-to-severe renal fibrosis over a baseline risk. Additional and/or substitute parameters are also described.
