Contrast-enhanced MRI for simultaneous evaluation of renal morphology and split renal function in living kidney donor candidates.

Purpose: The evaluation process of potential living kidney donors focusses on renal anatomy and split renal function. This study aimed to evaluate a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)-based approach for simultaneous evaluation of both and its impact on clinical decision making.

Method: Over a 3-year period, 65 potential living kidney donors were consecutively enrolled.
