Renal ultrasonography

\n\n
    \n\t
  • Perform ultrasonography to detect structural abnormalities when routine evaluation and urinalysis are inconclusive or to distinguish between acute and chronic kidney disease
  • \n
\n\n
    \n\t
  • Small hyperechoic kidneys, cysts, or lesions are irregularities associated with chronic kidney disease
  • \n
\n\n
    \n\t
  • Ultrasonography will also detect presence of stones, cysts, or masses that can affect renal function
  • \n
\n\n
    \n\t
  • Diagnosis of chronic kidney disease requires abnormalities persisting beyond 3 months

Differential Diagnosis

\n\n
    \n\t
  • Renal artery stenosis\n\t
      \n\t\t
    • Narrowing of the renal arteries resulting in loss of kidney function and blood pressure alteration
    • \n\t\t
    • Both renal artery stenosis and chronic kidney disease present with hypertension and reduced GFR
    • \n\t\t
    • Although also a cause of chronic kidney disease, renal artery stenosis (usually from atherosclerosis) is present before the development of kidney disease
    • \n\t\t
    • Renal bruit is indicative of renal artery stenosis
    • \n\t\t
    • Duplex ultrasonography can identify blockage in the renal artery and high velocity flow rate, indicative of renal artery stenosis

    \n\t
  • Neoplasm\n\t
      \n\t\t
    • Neoplasm of the kidney is a tumor growth in the renal cells
    • \n\t\t
    • Both diseases present with RBCs in urine
    • \n\t\t
    • Neoplasia can be differentiated by detecting tumor mass on kidney
    • \n\t\t
    • Contrast-enhanced CT scanning or ultrasonography can identify renal neoplasias, which can then be further evaluated with MRI
