Renal Doppler

The renal artery Doppler study consists of visualizing these arteries from the anterior wall of the abdomen. The images allow you to see the arteries and measure the flow rate of the aorta and renal arteries.

In this way, doctors can ensure good blood supply to both kidneys, evaluate the possibility of stenosis or narrowing of any of the arteries (which can be the cause of hypertension refractory to treatment), check the proper functioning of operations performed on the renal arteries (bypass, stents, angioplasties), rule out a perfusion deficit as the cause of an alteration in renal function of undetermined etiology.

INDICATIONS
- Vascular variants of normality
- Study of localized vascular stenosis or aneurysms of the abdominal aorta and main renal arteries
- Bilateral renal vascular-venous study
- Study of diffuse kidney diseases
- Study of localized parenchymal diseases (tumors).
