The measurement of perfusion and filtration of blood in biological tissue give rise to important clinical parameters used in diagnosis, follow-up, and therapy. In this paper, we address techniques for perfusion analysis using processed contrast agent concentration data from dynamic MRI acquisitions. A new methodology for analysis is evaluated and verified using synthetic data generated on a tissue geometry.

To investigate the efficacy of dual kidney transplantation (DKT) from adult donors. Clinical data of adult DKT donors and recipients in the Institute of Organ Transplantation, Tongji Hospital, Tongji Medical College, Huazhong University of Science and Technology from March 2015 to June 2024 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were followed up until September 2024.

Optimal fluid strategy for laparoscopic donor nephrectomy (LDN) remains unclear. LDN has been a domain for liberal fluid management to ensure graft perfusion, but this can result in adverse outcomes due to fluid overload. We compared postoperative outcome of living kidney donors according to the intraoperative fluid management.

Background: Exposure to suboptimal temperatures during pregnancy has been associated with adverse pregnancy and birth outcomes related to placental development disorders. No prior studies have examined the potential impacts of temperature on placental markers. We conducted an investigation into the cumulative impact of daily ambient temperature on critical clinical placental perfusion and function markers during the placentation period, utilizing data from a prospective birth cohort in Nanjing, China.

Background: Intravoxel incoherent motion (IVIM) MRI uses diffusion-weighted (DW) MRI acquisitions to evaluate the microvascular and cellular environments of tissue. Due to these properties, IVIM has been increasingly utilized to evaluate abnormal placentation.

Objective: Our primary objective was to compare IVIM parameters in the placenta of patients with fetal growth restriction and appropriate for gestational age controls across gestational ages.

To assess the utility of IVIM parameters in evaluating uterine fibroid blood flow compared to dynamic contrast-enhanced magnetic resonance imaging (DCE-MRI) derived blood flow. Sixteen premenopausal women with uterine fibroids were enrolled in this prospective study. Pelvic MRI scans were obtained for each subject, both with and without continuous intravenous infusion of oxytocin, known to decrease significantly uterine fibroid blood flow, to assess the changes in blood flow of uterine fibroids.
