Transplanted Kidney Diseases
Conditions
Interventions
Index test:Ultrasound ultra resolution microscopy imaging. A total of 150 patients were randomly assigned in a 1:1:1:1:1:1 ratio to six groups: convex array (S1-8C) probe with volumes of 0.8 ml, 1.0 m
linear array (U5-15L) probe with volumes of 0.6 ml, 0.8 ml, and 1.0 ml (one group each).
