Kidney biopsy specimen adequacy verification, glomeruli visualized #InterventionalNephrology #TissueIsTheIssue procedure completed by @OchsnerNephro fellow #kidneyimaging #nephPOCUS
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
Formidable photographs by @PuellesVictor made the cover of @Kidney_Int the future in #kidneyimaging is here
Pleuroperitoneal leak leading to R peritoneal dialysis (PD) hydrothorax, verified by scintigraphy/SPECT (tracer mobilized from peritoneum to pleural space). #kidneyimaging @OchsnerNephro case of Dr Zarm @AyaaZarm1 and fellow @jo1flores1. VATS planned. Posted w/permission from pt
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
Two kidneys of different color? complete occlusion of the right renal artery with no uptake of IV contrast, image by CT scanning #nephropic #renalimaging #kidneyimaging #MedEd @OchsnerNephro @OchsnerRads
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
Fred Rahbari from @EmoryUniversity on ADPKD. T2 in #MRI is best to visualize cysts (white) #renalimaging #kidneyimaging #NephroNet2018

Nice chemicoradiological correlation: medullary nephrocalcinosis and NAG met acidosis. MSK? Sjogren? W/u in progress. #renalimaging #nephroimaging #renalultrasound #kidneyimaging #acidbase
