Abstract

A series of seven cases of acute renal failure is presented in which sonographic study of the kidneys provided diagnostic information not otherwise obtainable. Ultrasonic imaging should be among the first diagnostic procedures applied in cases of acute unexplained renal failure because it provides rapid answers to the most urgent management problems โ€” whether there is an obstructive component, and what is the potential for recovery.

Eighty-seven patients and 60 normal children were studied to determine the upper limit of the renal pelvic size in children and its relation to disease and age. The renal pelves were all measured by ultrasonography. Further radiologic examinations were performed on the disease group to confirm the f

This renal vasoconstriction (increased renal vascular resistance) should be detectable noninvasively b

Cardiac dysfunction was observed with transvaginal ultrasound in 12 fetuses at 13-17 weeks' gestation. Impaired contractility of the heart and significant reduction of the left ventricular fractional shortening were noted in these fetuses. Three of the fetuses also had supraventricular tachycardia.
