Contrast-enhanced ultrasound and elastography predict histopathology and recovery in acute kidney injury by Xiangyu Wang, Jiajia Liu, Luzeng Chen, Tao Su

“…We aim to explore the potential correlation of CEUS–SWE derived parameters (peak intensity (PI), rise time (RT), time to peak (TTP), and shear wave velocity (SWV)) with renal histopathology and 3-month outcomes (renal recovery: estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) ≥45 mL/min/1.73 m2).Results CEUS revealed stage-specific perfusion patterns: milder AKI (eGFR >25 mL/min/1.73 m2) showed medullary hyperemia (cortical-to-medullary PI ratio: 0.80 ± 0.24 vs. 1.12 ± 0.18 in controls; p < .05), a potential compensatory response to medullary hypoxia. …”
