Ultrasound to predict kidney risk after transplant
Part of Kidney & urinary clinical trials.
This study uses ultrasound of donor kidneys to predict the risk of kidney problems after transplant. It may help doctors better understand transplant outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are receiving a kidney transplant at this hospital.
- You are 18 years or older.
- The donor kidney meets certain age and health criteria, such as being from a brain-dead donor or a donor with specific age and health conditions.
- You do not have a history of multiple kidney transplants.
- Your transplant follow-up will last at least one year.

This study tests a new ultrasound technique to monitor blood flow in transplanted kidneys and predict whether they will work well after surgery. Researchers will use special ultrasound imaging to look at tiny blood vessels in the kidney to help doctors understand why some transplants struggle in the first weeks after surgery.
This trial uses special ultrasound techniques to predict how well your remaining kidney will work after surgery to remove part or all of one kidney. It may help doctors understand your recovery and tailor follow-up care.
This study uses a simple ultrasound test (kidney artery scan) to see if it can predict kidney problems early in people who are very ill. It may help doctors protect your kidneys during your hospital stay.
This study uses ultrasound and body-composition imaging to measure muscle health in people receiving kidney transplants. The goal is to better understand and prevent muscle loss, a common problem after transplant.
This study looks at how well a simple ultrasound test (checking the size of a large vein near your liver) can guide fluid management after a kidney transplant. It may help doctors give you the right amount of fluids to keep your new kidney healthy.
This trial checks if a new urine test (u DKK3) can find signs of kidney transplant problems earlier than current tests. It looks at your kidney function over the first year after your transplant.
