Bone and blood-vessel changes around kidney transplant
Part of Kidney & urinary, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study looks at how bone structure and blood-vessel calcification change before and after a kidney transplant. It may help doctors better understand what to monitor for long-term health after transplantation.
