Imaging of renal transplant: utility and spectrum of diagnostic findings

Curr Probl Diagn Radiol. 2011 May-Jun;40(3):127-39. doi: 10.1067/j.cpradiol.2010.06.001.

Abstract

Several noninvasive imaging techniques have been developed and improved over recent years that facilitate detection of both vascular and nonvascular postoperative complications as well as diagnosis of diseases related to the transplanted organ itself. In this article, we present a multi-modality review of the spectrum of pathology related to renal transplantation.
