  • Title: [Follow-up monitoring of kidney transplants with color-coded duplex sonography].
    Author: Fobbe F, Schudrowitsch L, Dietzel M, Wolf KJ.
    Journal: Rofo; 1989 Jan; 150(1):76-9. PubMed ID: 2536501.
    Abstract:
    Fifty patients were examined immediately after renal transplantation by colour-coded duplex sonography. This procedure is a further development of conventional duplex sonography and permits demonstration of soft tissues in real time, as well as simultaneous imaging of blood flow over the whole imaging area. Perfusion of the transplant could be demonstrated in all patients by this method. Colour-coded duplex sonography can replace scintigraphy and angiography for the demonstration of perfusion of renal transplants. It is, however, not possible to distinguish with certainty between acute tubular necrosis and acute rejection by performing spectrum analysis of blood flow in the renal arteries.
