Chronic Kidney Disease Clinical Trial
Official title:
Shear Wave Elastography in Native Kidney Disease: a Pilot Study
In this proposal, the aim is to examine shear wave elastography (SWE) measurements in
diseased native kidneys and correlate them with grades of fibrosis using histological
samples.
The overall goals of the proposed study are addressed by the following specific aim.
Specific aim: To determine whether differences exist in elasticity measurements between
native kidneys with and without fibrosis.
Hypothesis: Kidneys with higher grades of fibrosis will demonstrate higher measures of tissue
elasticity and stiffness compared to kidneys with zero fibrosis.
The proposed project is a prospective cross-sectional study correlating native kidney shear
wave elastography (SWE) measurements with histology. Briefly, patients referred for a native
kidney biopsy will undergo SWE and the shear wave velocity (SWV) will be correlated with
degree of fibrosis determined by a pathologist.
A list of patients who recently underwent a native kidney biopsy will be obtained from the
pathology department on a weekly basis. Patients will then be contacted about participating
in the study and consented during a follow up visit with their nephrologist.
After their biopsies, patients will be scheduled to come for a renal ultrasound and SWE. SWE
examination will be conducted using an ultrasound machine equipped with a Philips Epiq ARFI
Shear wave ElastPQ C1-5 mHz transducer. Shear wave velocity will be obtained and an estimate
of tissue elasticity (Young's modulus) will be calculated. All measurements will be performed
by one of two qualified radiology physicians who will be blinded to the clinical and
pathological data. We will allow a period of 90 days to obtain the images after the biopsy;
otherwise the patient is no longer eligible to participate.
The primary outcome measure of this study is to determine whether tissue elasticity
determined by SWE can assess kidney fibrosis. Linear regression analysis will be performed to
describe the relation of the extent of fibrosis and parenchymal stiffness.
