Renal Pathology and Diagnostic Imaging

Renal Pathology and Diagnostic Imaging are essential for accurately diagnosing and managing kidney diseases. Renal pathology involves microscopic examination of kidney tissue, typically through biopsy, to identify structural abnormalities, inflammation, infections, or tumors. It helps classify diseases like glomerulonephritis or lupus nephritis. Diagnostic imaging, including ultrasound, CT scans, and MRI, provides non-invasive visualization of kidney size, structure, and blood flow. Together, these tools enable early detection, guide treatment decisions, and monitor disease progression or response to therapy.
