Abstract

Renal transplantation is the treatment of choice for patients with end-stage renal disease. Renal transplant pathology and complications are closely dependent on the age of the allograft. While biopsy is typically needed for definitive diagnosis in many of these, several noninvasive cross-sectional techniques play a crucial role in the management of renal transplant patients. Ultrasound is the first-line modality, which provides excellent anatomic detail, as well as information on vascularity with use of Doppler. Conventional and angiographic CT and MR have become excellent cross-sectional tools, which provide local, regional, vascular, and distal information in more complex cases.
