Kidney volume to GFR ratio predicts functional improvement after revascularization in atheromatous renal artery stenosis.

Kidney volume to GFR ratio predicts functional improvement after revascularization in atheromatous renal artery stenosis.

BACKGROUND:Randomized controlled trials (RCT) have shown no overall benefit of renal revascularization in atherosclerotic renovascular disease (ARVD). However, 25% of patients demonstrate improvement in renal function. We used the ratio of magnetic resonance parenchymal volume (PV) to isotopic singl...
