“…The MRI method has been used in diagnosing CKD because it is a noninvasive and accessible method. [22][23][24] However, its operator dependency and low sensitivity reduce its utility in research. This study introduced gadolinium-based MRI to improve operator dependency and low sensitivity in diagnosing cortical RBFs, eGFR, renal fibrosis, renal damage, and eGFR in CKD patients.…”

Background: Chronic kidney disease (CKD) can lead to systemic inflammatory responses and other cardiovascular disease. Diffusion tensor imaging findings generated by gadolinium-based MRI (DTI-GBMRI) is regarded as a standard method for assessing the pathology of CKD. To evaluate the diagnostic value of DTI-GBMRI for renal histopathology and renal efficiency, renal fibrosis and damage, noninvasive quantification of renal blood flow (RBF) were investigated in patients with CKD.Methods: CKD patients (n = 186) were recruited and underwent diagnosis of renal diffusion tensor imaging findings generated by MRI (DTI-MRI) or DTI-GBMRI to identify the pathological characteristics and depict renal efficiency. The cortical RBFs and estimated glomerular filtration rate were compared in CKD patients undergone DTI-GBMRI (n = 92) or DTI-MRI (n = 94).Results: Gadolinium enhanced the diagnosis generated by DTI-MRI in renal fibrosis, renal damage, and estimated glomerular filtration rate. The superiority in sensitivity and accuracy of the DTI-GBMRI method in assessing renal function and evaluating renal impairment was observed in CKD patients compared with DTI-MRI. Outcomes demonstrated that DTI-GBMRI had higher accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity than DTI-MRI in diagnosing patients with CKD. Conclusion:In conclusion, DTI-GBMRI is a potential noninvasive method for measuring renal function, which can provide valuable information for clinical CKD diagnosis.Abbreviations: ASCVD = atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease, BP = blood pressure, CEUS = contrast-enhanced ultrasound, CKD = chronic kidney disease, CMR = cardiovascular magnetic resonance, CNR = contrast-to-noise ratio, CT = computed tomography, DTI-GBMRI = diffusion tensor imaging findings generated by gadolinium-based MRI, DTI-MRI = diffusion tensor imaging findings generated by MRI, eGFR = estimated glomerular filtration rate, GB = gadolinium, MRI = magnetic resonance imaging, MTT = mean transit time, RBF = renal blood flow, ROC = receptor operating characteristics, US = ultrasonography.
