Ultrasound is commonly used in nephrology for diagnostic studies of the kidneys and lower urinary tract and to guide percutaneous procedures, such as insertion of hemodialysis catheters and kidney biopsy. Nephrologists must, therefore, have a thorough understanding of renal anatomy and the sonographic appearance of normal kidneys and lower urinary tract, and they must be able to recognize common abnormalities. Proper interpretation requires correlation with the clinical scenario. With the advent of affordable, portable scanners, sonography has become a procedure that can be performed by nephrologists, and both training and certification in renal ultrasonography are available.

“…The patients were examined in the supine position: left lateral decubitus for the right kidney and right lateral decubitus for the left kidney. Doppler phenomena has been induced to assess the renal arteries flow indices (RI, PI), for all groups using the non-compression technique based on the method recommended by Krumme et al, [14] as shown in Figure (1 ) in which the RI of left (a) and right renal arteries (b) were high (0.85 & 0.99 respectively) while the PI were (2.13 & 2.14 respectively). Main renal and segmental arteries were scanned using a 2-4 mm Doppler gate.…”

Abstract:The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of sickle cell diseases (SCD) on renal arteries blood flow indices by using of color Doppler ultrasonography (CDU) in addition to relationships with age and body mass index (BMI). The method adapted was an experimental study among a sample consists of 115 SCD patients and 100 as control group. CDU of the main renal and segmental arteries performed among all patients and controls. All the patients were scanned in stable state condition. The results analysis carried out by EXCELL software for the collected variables which revealed that: the patients showed higher resistivity index RI and pulsatility index PI than control subjects (for patients 0.8 & 1.5 and 0.7 & 1.4 for control group. The significant positive correlation between RI and age (r = 0.194, and r = 0.061) for patients and control group respectively in the right renal artery and as well the RI correlated proportionally with BMI (r=0.53) for patients and (r=0.05) for control group.
