Abstract

The progression of polycystic kidney disease (PKD) to renal failure was studied in a rat model. The experiment involved the use of ultrasound to noninvasively detect morphological changes early in the disease process when interventions are most successful and before there is a significant loss in renal function. Preliminary results suggest that microstructural changes due to PKD are disrupting the tissue macrostructure at a very early stage of the disease. The combined results suggest the quantitative ultrasonic imaging (QUS) may have a significant role in diagnosing and tracking renal disease progression.
