Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Inclusion criteria for patients with single kidney: - Age: 0 to 18 years - Compliance with the examination - depending on the group: presence of renal agenesis, multicystic kidney disease (MCKD), post-nephrectomy or presence of a transplant kidney - No current infection - no mass in/on the kidney - written declaration of consent from the patient's legal guardian or, if the patient is of legal age, for the study to be conducted.
