Renal Duplex Ultrasound

EXAM: Renal Duplex Ultrasound
INDICATION:       
COMPARISON: None
TECHNIQUE: Color Doppler and waveform spectral analysis were obtained of the renal vessels and abdominal aorta.

FINDINGS:     

Aorta PSV = ... cm/sec

Right Kidney: 

Main renal artery PSV:
     Ostium/Proximal  = ... cm/sec
     Mid = ... cm/sec
     Distal = ... cm/sec

Intrarenal (interlobar or arcuate) arteries:
Acceleration time: Normal
Resistive index: Normal

RA PSV/aorta PSV ratio (RAR) = ...
