Renal resistive index fails to detect cortical perfusion asymmetry in patients with haemodynamic renal artery stenosis

In pazienti affetti da stenosi emodinamica dell'arteria renale non vi e' correlazione tra l'asimmetria dell'indice di resistenza ilare renale ed i parametri ecografici di perfusione renale ("CEUS bolus kinetics") e la clearance della creatinina In patients affected by hemodyanmic stenosis of the renal artery no correlation was found between the asymmetry in the renal resistive index and the echografic evidence of reduced renal perfusion ("CEUS bolus kinetics") and creatinine clearance
