Test Results
Results and Interpretations
| Condition/Findings | Description (Example Patient Finding) | General Interpretation / Significance |
|---|---|---|
| Renal artery lumen diameter | ≥4 mm | Normal |
| Stenosis | <50 % | Mild—observe |
| Stenosis | ≥70 % | Severe—intervention likely |
| Normal flow void | Smooth, dark column of blood | No blockage |
| Focal stenosis | Sudden narrowing | Likely plaque or fibromuscular dysplasia |
| Post-stenotic dilation | Bulge just after narrowing | High-grade stenosis indicator |
| Renal Veins | Patent with normal caliber; Evidence of thrombus; Compression (e.g., Nutcracker syndrome – left renal vein between SMA and aorta) | Evaluates renal venous outflow. Thrombosis may cause renal dysfunction or flank pain. Nutcracker syndrome can result in hematuria or varicocele. |
| Presence of Stents / Grafts | Patent renal artery stent with no restenosis; Occlusion or narrowing of prior bypass graft | Used to evaluate post-procedural status. In-stent restenosis or graft occlusion can lead to recurrence of symptoms and requires follow-up or revision. |
