Sensing ultrasound localization microscopy (sULM) is an advanced imaging technique that uses ultrasound imaging and microbubbles as sensors to visualize kidney functional units. This study aims to investigate whether sULM could differentiate between renal pseudotumors and tumors based on the presence of glomeruli.

  • * Female Long-Evans rats were divided into groups to assess the effects of E155 on tumor development, with some receiving the dye in various doses over 40 weeks compared to control groups.
  • * Results showed that higher E155 doses led to significant weight loss, renal impairment, liver dysfunction, and an increased incidence of mammary tumors, suggesting that prolonged exposure could heighten breast cancer risk.
