Renal Parenchyma
General Stuff �Retroperitoneal �Left higher than the right (Liver on the rt) �Ascends during embryology from the lower abdomen. �Pelvic kidney? �Back pain? Could be your kidney!
Kidney Size �ADULT • 9. 0 to 12. 0 cm in length. • 4. 0 to 5. 0 cm in width. • 2. 5 to 3. 0 cm in height. • Minimum of 1 cm in cortical thickness. �CHILD • 7. 0 to 8. 0 cm in length. �INFANT • 5. 0 to 6. 0 cm in length.
Indications for Exam � � � � Increase in creatinine or BUN levels. Urinary tract infection. Flank pain. Hematuria. Hypertension. Decrease in urine output. Trauma. Evaluate mass from previous medical imaging study (i. e. , CT, MRI, IVP)
LABORATORY VALUES � CREATININE Normal 0. 6 to 1. 2 mg/d. L. A waste product produced from meat protein and normal wear and tear on the muscles in the body. • More specific in determining renal dysfunction than BUN levels. • Elevated in renal failure, chronic nephritis or urinary obstruction. • • � BLOOD UREA NITROGEN Normal 11 to 23 mg/d. L. Produced from the breakdown of food proteins. Elevated in urinary obstruction, renal dysfunction, or dehydration. • Decreased levels associated with over hydration, pregnancy, liver failure, decrease in protein intake, and smoking. • • •
Laboratory Values: Continued � HEMATURIA � Visible or microscopic red blood cells in the urine. � Associated with early renal disease. � PROTEINURIA � Abnormal amount of proteins in the urine. � Associated with nephritis, nephrolithiasis, carcinoma, polycystic disease, hypertension, and diabetes mellitus. � Increases risk of developing progressive renal dysfunction.
Key terms �Dromedary hump cortical bulge on the lateral aspect of the kidney. �fascia fibrous connective membrane of the body that may be separate from other structures. �Fetal lobulation immaturity of renal development resulting in a lobulated renal contour. �Gerota’s fascia protective covering of tissue surrounding each kidney.
Dromedary Hump Kidney
Fetal lobulation variant
�Renal parenchyma the functional tissue of the kidney consisting of the nephrons. �Renin renal enzyme that affects blood pressure.
Renal Parenchyma and relative echogenicity
FUNCTIONS OF THE URINARY SYSTEM Produces urine and erythroprotein. � Influences blood pressure, blood volume, and intake or excretion of salt and water through the renin–angiotensin system. � Regulates serum electrolytes. � Regulates acid–base balance. �
TECHNIQUE PREPARATION • • • Kidneys—patient should be hydrated. Renal vessels—nothing by mouth for 6 to 8 hours before the examination. Bladder—drink 8 to 16 ounces of water 1 hour before the examination.
EXAMINATION TECHNIQUE and imaging optimization �Use the highest-frequency abdominal transducer possible to obtain optimal resolution for penetration depth. � Place gain settings to display the normal adult renal cortex as moderate or low-level echogenicity and the renal sinus as the most echogenic with adjustments to reduce echoes within the vessels.
� Position the focal zone(s) at or below the region of interest. � Sufficient imaging depth to visualize structures posterior to the region of interest. � Harmonic imaging and decreasing the compression (dynamic range) can be used to reduce artifactual echoes within anechoic structures and improve prominence of posterior acoustic shadowing.
� Evaluation and documentation of the superior, inferior, medial, and lateral aspects of each kidney in the coronal or sagittal plane.
�Evaluation and documentation of the superior pole, renal hilum, and inferior pole of each kidney in the transverse plane. �Measurements of maximum length, thickness, and width of each kidney. �Measurement of the cortical thickness of each kidney.
�Evaluation and documentation of the bladder wall. �Prevoid and postvoid bladder volumes may be included. �Kidneys are best evaluated with an empty urinary bladder. �Documentation and measurement of any abnormality in two scanning planes should be included.

RAO-Right Anterior Oblique
PHYSIOLOGY The nephron is the basic functional unit of the kidney. • Each kidney contains over one million nephrons. •
The renal Nephron
�ANATOMY �Renal capsule �Fibrous capsule (true capsule) surrounding the cortex �Renal cortex �Outer portion of the kidney
Medulla �Inner portion of the renal parenchyma �Within the medulla lie the renal pyramids �Renal pyramids contain tubules and the loops of Henle
Column of Bertin � Inward extension of the renal cortex between the renal pyramids � Renal sinus � Central portion of the kidney � Contains the major and minor calyces, peripelvic fat, fibrous tissues, arteries, veins, lymphatics, and part of the renal pelvis � Renal hilum � Contains the renal artery, renal vein, and ureter
Column of Bertin between the renal Pyramids
Gerota’s Fascia “C”
Location �Paired bean-shaped structures lying in a sagittal oblique plane in the retroperitoneal cavity. �Located between the first and third lumbar vertebrae. �Superior poles lie more posterior and medial. �Inferior poles lie more anterior and lateral. �Left kidney lies superior to the right kidney.
�Each Kidney Is Located �Anterior to the psoas and quadratus lumborum muscles. �Medial to the transverse abdominus muscle and liver or spleen. �Lateral to the quadratus lumborum muscle.
�Renal Anatomical Variants �Dromedary hump �Cortical bulge on the lateral aspect of the kidney �Demonstrated most often on the left �Asymptomatic Lateral outward cortical bulge � Echogenicity equal to the cortex Carcinoma? � Hematoma?

What is this?
Horseshoe kidney
Renal Vasculature
MAIN RENAL ARTERY �The right renal artery arises from the anterolateral aspect of the aorta. The left renal artery arises from the posterolateral aspect of the aorta. � May have multiple ipsilateral arteries
�A single ipsilateral artery may divide into multiple renal arteries at the hilum �Courses posterior to the renal vein �Main renal artery arises 1. 0 -1. 5 cm inferior to the origin of the superior mesenteric artery � Right renal artery is longer than the left renal artery
�Demonstrates low-resistance blood flow �Supplies the kidney, ureter, and adrenal gland �Segmental artery �After entering the renal hilum the artery divides into 4 -5 segmental arteries �Demonstrates low-resistance blood flow
�Interlobar artery �Branch of the segmental artery �Course alongside the renal pyramids �Demonstrates low-resistance blood flow
� Renal Vasculature— � Arcuate artery � Boundary between the cortex and medulla � Branch of the interlobar artery located at the base of the medulla � Arcuate arteries give rise to the interlobular arteries � Demonstrates low-resistance blood flow � Interlobular artery � Branch of the arcuate arteries entering the renal glomeruli
�MAIN RENAL VEIN �Formed from the junction of tributaries in the renal hilum �Courses anterior to the renal artery �Left renal vein receives the left suprarenal and left gonadal vein � Left renal vein is longer than the right renal vein �Dilatation of the left renal vein due to mesenteric compression may be demonstrated
�Ureter Anatomy � 25 – 34 cm long tubular structure connecting the renal pelvis to the urinary bladder. �Coarse vertically with retroperitoneum along the psoas muscles. �Insert posterior and inferiorly at the Trigone of the bladder. �Distal ureter at the trigone considered extraperitoneal.
