CT volumetry performs better than nuclear renography in predicting estimated renal function one year after living donation
The evaluation of split renal function (SRF) is a critical issue in living kidney donations and can be evaluated using nuclear renography (NR) or...

Can CT or MRI volumetry substitute scintigraphy in living kidney donor evaluation? A systematic review
BackgroundCurrent potential living kidney donor’s assessment includes functional and anatomical evaluation. Scintigraphy is recommended in some cases...

Remnant renal volume can predict prognosis of remnant renal function in kidney transplantation donors: a prospective observational study
BackgroundSafety and survival during and after donor nephrectomy (DN) are one of the main concerns in living kidney donors (LKDs). Therefore, kidney...

Rapidly progressive brain atrophy in septic ICU patients: a retrospective descriptive study using semiautomatic CT volumetry
BackgroundSepsis is often associated with multiple organ failure; however, changes in brain volume with sepsis are not well understood. We assessed...

First experiences with machine learning predictions of accelerated declining eGFR slope of living kidney donors 3 years after donation
BackgroundLiving kidney donors are screened pre-donation to estimate the risk of end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). We evaluate Machine Learning (ML)...

The performance of left/right adrenal volume ratio and volume difference in predicting unilateral primary aldosteronism
PurposeThe role of computed tomography (CT) in the diagnosis of primary aldosteronism (PA) warrants attention, since the success application of...

Estimation of split renal function using different volumetric methods: inter- and intraindividual comparison between MRI and CT
PurposeThis study aims to determine whether contrast-enhanced (CE)-magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is comparable to CE-computed tomography (CT) for...

Correlation between serum biomarkers, brain volume, and retinal neuronal loss in early-onset Alzheimer’s disease
PurposeTo compare the peripapillary retinal nerve fiber layer (pRNFL), retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), and ganglion cell complex (GCC) thickness...

The assessment of renal cortex and parenchymal volume using automated CT volumetry for predicting renal function after donor nephrectomy
BackgroundContrast-enhanced CT is necessary before donor nephrectomy and is usually combined with a Tc-99m-mercapto-acetyltriglycine (MAG3) scan to...
