Evaluation of renal microperfusion in hyperuricemic nephropathy by contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging

Evaluation of renal microperfusion in hyperuricemic nephropathy by contrast-enhanced ultrasound imaging

Diagnostic tools for the early detection of renal injury caused by hyperuricemia are still lacking. Here, we investigated whether contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) could be used as a diagnostic tool for hyperuricemic nephropathy (HN). In the HN rat model, CEUS detected a significant decline in ren...
