Blood velocity waveforms in peripheral arteries vary such that decreasing vascular resistance results in a relative increase in diastolic velocity a t steady state. We measured blood velocity in renal arteries of 20 children (age: 119 months \* 37 months; weight: 38 kg 2 15 kg) to establish normal
## SUMMARY The purpose of the present paper was to assess whether conventional renal Doppler ultrasound and the commonly used parameters of peak systolic velocity and renal aortic ratio may be an appropriate modality for the follow‐up of renal artery stents. A total of 19 arteries in 15 patients wa
