- Abstract
- Purpose. Sonographic measurement of
renal volume is one of the parameters used in the
diagnosis of renal transplant dysfunction and in follow-
up of patients with renal transplant. The aim of
this study was to compare the prolate ellipsoid formula
with a new formula in calculating the volume of
a transplanted kidney.
Methods. The renal volumes in 24 patients with a
stable renal transplant were determined sonographically
with the ellipsoid formula and via helical CT with
the voxel-count method, which is the gold standard. A
new formula that uses renal length and the cross-sectional
area at themaximumtransverse section has been
evaluated in a small series of transplanted kidneys.
Results. Renal volume was underestimated with the
sonographic ellipsoid formula and the new formula.
The new formula yielded the lowest underestimation
of the mean renal volume, and the measurements
obtained with it were not significantly different from
those obtained with CT.
Conclusions. The use of sonography is appropriate
for accurate calculation of renal volume, and the new
formula that uses only 2 ultrasound parameters best
represents the volume of a renal transplant. (literal)
