Chronic kidney disease is a worldwide clinical and public health problem. As a risk factor for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, the disease has gradually become one of the causes of morbidity and death. As a routine method of screening for kidney disease, ultrasound is very important in improving the rate of early detection and accuracy of chronic kidney disease. This article explores the value of applying 3D ultrasound in conjunction with augmented reality medical technology in chronic kidney disease, observing changes in kidney tumor at different stages with percutaneous 3D ultrasound in patients with chronic kidney disease. Volunteers with chronic kidney disease were selected for this experiment. Among them, 160 males and 140 females were diagnosed as chronic kidney disease by clinical or renal pathological biopsy, and they all met the K/DOQI diagnostic criteria for chronic kidney disease. The selected subjects met the criteria and were divided into 5 groups, each with 60 patients, to explore the correlation of properties such as three-dimensional ultrasound kidney volume in different stages of chronic kidney disease. Experiments have shown that, with the increase in the stages of chronic kidney disease, the elasticity and volume of the renal parenchyma decrease, and the resistance index of the renal artery becomes larger, P<0.05; the difference is statistically significant, indicating that the elasticity of the renal parenchyma is associated with chronic kidney disease. The stage is negatively correlated, and the resistance index of the renal artery is positively correlated with the stage of chronic kidney disease. That is, as the stage of chronic kidney disease increases, the three-dimensional volume of the kidney shows a decreasing trend and the resistance index of the renal artery shows an increasing trend. Speed shows a declining trend and there is some correlation between the three.
