Your kidneys are vital organs that work quietly behind the scenes, keeping your body functioning at its best.

Sometimes, performing safely a percutaneous biopsy of one of the lower poles of the kidneys is just not feasible. Acquired renal cystic disease, new onset glomerular hematuria, nephrosis. #kidneyimaging #nephropic #nephroPOCUS #renalultrasound #InterventionalNephrology
This is why a #renalultrasound can be a critical piece in the assessment of #AKI. unsuspected obstructive uropathy, bl hydronephrosis (US) resolved w/nephrostomies (CT) promptly placed by IR @OchsnerRads #NephroPOCUS #UroNephrology #kidneyimaging @OchsnerNephro @therealleadAPP
Kidney ultrasound of a pt with #COVAN. Hyperechogenicity brings back HIVAN memories. Images speak for themselves. #renalultrasound #kidneyimaging #nephropic #nephroPOCUS @OchsnerNephro #COVID19 @lglomcon
Often overlooked abnormality in #renalultrasound: effacement or the renal sinus (right) denoting “swollen” renal parenchyma (could be ATN, AIN, GN); normal brightness and thickness in left image. #renalimaging #nephropic #kidneyultrasonography #nephroPOCUS @OchsnerNephro
When you read “kidney with bumpy contour” in a sonogram report, this is what it means. Sometimes it’s just persistent fetal lobulation, but it often denotes scarring. #renalimaging #nephropic #nephroPOCUS #kidneyimaging #renalultrasound #MedEd @OchsnerNephro
Nice example of a hyperechogenic kidney. Biopsy showed C3-GN with only 5% IFTA & zero obsolescent gloms; “echogenic kidneys” in isolation is never a contraindication for kidney biopsy. #renalimaging #NephPOCUS #renalultrasound #kidneyimaging #nephropic @OchsnerNephro
Good example of chronic residual moderate-to-severe hydronephrosis in a pt with #CKD and remote UPJ stricture. Now evolving proteinuria, 2ry #FSGS from VUR is being considered. #kidneyimaging #renalultrasound #nephropic @NephroP #POCUS
Great example of a #kidney w/advanced #CKD: small size, bumpy contour, thinned parenchyma and multiple acquired simple #cysts likely dx ischemic #nephropathy #kidneyimaging #renalimaging #renalultrasound #renalultrasonography #nephropic #badlookingbeans
Nice chemicoradiological correlation: medullary nephrocalcinosis and NAG met acidosis. MSK? Sjogren? W/u in progress. #renalimaging #nephroimaging #renalultrasound #kidneyimaging #acidbase
Bumpy contours in a CKD stage 3B pt. #renalimaging #kidneyUS #renalultrasound #kidneyultrasonography #kidneyimaging
Hyperechogenic lesion in upper pole of R #kidney, incidental finding, prompted further investigation #renalimaging #renalultrasound #renalultrasonography #kidneyUS
