Fig. 12From: ARFI: from basic principles to clinical applications in diffuse chronic disease—a reviewARFI evaluation of kidney. Oblique US scans on the left kidney of three different 12-year-old boys. The cortical SWV value is lower (3.08 vs. 3.47 m/s) in a healthy control (a) than in a boy with chronic kidney disease due to vesicoureteral reflux (c) treated at younger age. Intermediate SWV values (3.32 m/s) are measured in the apparently normal left kidney (b) of a boy with chronic contralateral diseaseBack to article page
