Beyond traditional nephrometry: a 3D quantitative framework for predicting pentafecta and evaluating mediation effects in nephron-sparing surgery.

Article C Peer reviewed Observational

Key takeaways

This study used 3D scans to predict how well a kidney would work after surgery. It looked at 375 patients who had kidney-sparing surgery. It shows a link between the scan measurements and kidney function. It is an observational study, not a test of a new treatment.
