Radiology Toolkit
Radiology has a central role to aid in the imaging-based diagnosis and prognosis of patients with Autosomal Dominant Polycystic Kidney Disease (ADPKD) through excluding mimics, identifying complications, and assessing disease severity with height adjusted total kidney volume (HtTKV). TKV is an important measure for assessing disease progression and can help predict future kidney function decline and kidney failure using the Mayo Clinic Imaging Classification.
