Kidney
Renal Function Monitoring Made Easy
Monitor renal size and assess function non-invasively and in real-time.
Pulsed-Wave Doppler of the renal artery in a mouse used to calculate blood flow velocities, etc.
With the Vevo imaging systems, you can:
- Calculate renal resistive index and pulsatility index
- Capture accurate 3D volumes
- Evaluate renal microcirculatory flow
- Early detection of cysts, tumors, obstructions, etc.
- Renal biopsy and/or injection
Ultra-high frequency ultrasound is great for preclinical renal models including:
- Chronic kidney disease
- Hypertension
- Polycystic Kidney Disease
- Hydronephrosis
- Renal cancers
