Beyond Kidney Volume: 3D Mapping of Parenchymal, Cortical and Medullary Thickness with Disease, Anthropometry and Kidney Adiposity
Key takeaways
This study used MRI scans from 70,270 people to map the 3D thickness of kidney parts. It looks at how these details link to kidney disease and body size. The paper is a preprint, so it has not passed peer review yet. There are no final results to report at this time.
