Delayed graft function is a form of acute renal failure
that results in post-transplantation oliguria. Recently,
the pathophysiology of renal ischemia and reperfusion
injury has been recognized as the consequence to the
development of delayed graft function. The goal of the
present study is to perform IVIM MRI and non-contrast
MRA in patients after renal transplantation to evaluate
the micro-structural and macrocirculation status of
graft kidneys. The experimental results may be
considerably useful in early diagnosis of delayed graft
function and also understanding the machanism of
development of the disorder.
