Ultrasound versus magnetic resonance imaging for calculating total kidney volume in patients with ADPKD: a real-world data analysis.

Background And Objectives: This study aimed to compare Total kidney volume (TKV) measurements using US-ellipsoid (US-EL) and MRI-ellipsoid (MRI-EL) in patients with autosomal-dominant-polycystic-kidney-disease (ADPKD). It also evaluated whether the agreement between right (RKV) and left (LKV) kidney volume measurements differed.

Methods: Retrospective analysis of a prospective data-base that included consecutive patients diagnosed with ADPKD.
