In this presentation, the complexities of genetic testing in ADPKD, recommendations on when genetic testing is appropriate and indicated, and the various types of molecular genetic tests available will be discussed.
Dr. Workeneh, a double Board-certified nephrologist and internist, and professor will discuss the pathophysiology and management of HTN in patients with ADPKD, CKD, and the GP.
Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD), an inherited progressive kidney disease, is the fourth leading cause of kidney failure in the US. ADPKD has a spectrum of clinical and imaging features that have direct prognostic implications1. Total kidney volume (TKV), adjusted for height and age, has been shown to be the best predictor of kidney function decline; this forms the basis for the Mayo Clinic Imaging Classification (MCIC) of the severity grade of ADPKD1. Radiology’s central role in ADPKD is to aid in the imaging-based diagnosis, prognostication, and monitoring for disease progression.
Join us for our panel discussion, where experts discuss their passion for ADPKD and IgAN and how the entire kidney community can rally around Rare Disease Day to raise awareness about these rare kidney diseases.
In this presentation, we will discuss the important role of imaging in diagnosis and prognosis of ADPKD, including measuring TKV, looking at complications and more.

This webinar discusses the association between ADPKD burden and disease severity, and if patient reported burden is associated with worse outcomes.
This webinar panel discussion featuring Dr. Ankur Shah, Dr. Debra Hain and Dr. Edgar Lerma will discuss the potential impacts of climate change on kidney disease and mental health, as well as the urgent awareness needed to improve patient care globally.
