Purpose. To evaluate and determine Doppler criteria for predicting a severe transplant renal artery stenosis (80%-99% diameter reduction) and to compare the Doppler findings in patients with end-to-end and end-to-side anastomosis. Methods. We performed Doppler sonography on 16 consecutive patients
## Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the accuracy of duplex doppler sonography in diagnosing transplant renal artery stenosis (tras) and to determine which parameter is the most reliable for making that diagnosis. ## Methods: Over a 3-year period, we sonographically evaluated patient
The use of renal artery Doppler ultrasound for the diagnosis of renal artery stenosis is a wellβestablished technique in selected populations, but the technical failure rate of the examination leading to incomplete studies is a major drawback. The results of ultrasound contrastβenhanced renal artery
