The comparison of the resistivity index values in the ultrasonographic evaluation of a unilateral atrophic/hypoplastic kidney

Background In the study, we aimed to determine the sensitivity of the renal resistivity index (RI) in differentiating hypoplastic and atrophic kidneys in patients with small-sized kidneys, and to evaluate its capacity to predict the renal involvement confirmed by the DMSA scintigraphy. Material and...
