Résumé
Contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) is a widely used diagnostic tool for analyzing perfusion and characterizing lesions in several organs. However, to date, it has not been sufficiently investigated whether there is an association between CEUS findings and kidney function. This study aimed at identifying the potential relationship between kidney function and the renal perfusion status determined by CEUS in living kidney donors. A total of 30 living kidney donors examined between April 2018 and March 2020 were included in the study. All patients underwent various diagnostic procedures for evaluation of renal function. CEUS was performed in all 30 donors one day before nephrectomy. Kidney perfusion was quantified using a postprocessing tool (VueBox, Bracco Imaging). Various perfusion parameters were subsequently analyzed and compared with the results of the other methods used to evaluate kidney function. Of all parameters, mean signal intensity (MeanLin) had the strongest correlation, showing significant correlations with eGFR (CG) (r = -0.345;
