Harmonization of acquisition and analysis protocols is an important step in the validation of
BOLD MRI as a renal biomarker. This harmonization initiative provides technical …

Chronic kidney disease (CKD) affects 8–16% of the population worldwide and is
characterized by fibrotic processes. Understanding the cellular and molecular mechanisms …

Purpose Early assessment of renal allograft function post‐transplantation is crucial to
minimize and control allograft rejection. Biopsy—the gold standard—is used only as a last …

Kidney transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease,
as it extends survival and increases quality of life in these patients. However, chronic …

Objectives To assess retrospectively whether diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance
imaging (DW-MRI) allows physicians to determine the severity of histopathologic findings in …

Blood oxygen level-dependent magnetic resonance imaging (BOLD MRI) has recently been
utilized as a noninvasive tool for evaluating renal oxygenation. Several methods have been …

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) can be noninvasively diagnosed on the basis of its
characteristic imaging findings of arterial phase enhancement and portal/delayed “washout” …

Objective To highlight progress and opportunities of measuring kidney size with MRI, and to
inspire research into resolving the remaining methodological gaps and unanswered …

Background Transplant renal artery stenosis (TRAS) has been shown to reduce kidney
perfusion leading to post‐operative hypertension. We aimed to measure the perfusion and …

Key Points• The number of publications on imaging and kidney transplantation is low.•
These publications are poorly cited, as compared with other fields of imaging.• Conversely …
