The first goal of this study was to quantitatively assess regional changes in function and pathophysiological characteristics in renal IR injured mice and compare data obtained at baseline and following injury. The second goal was to correlate BOLD and DTI data using time-dependent scans. Our current findings suggest that MRI could be used to obtain pathophysiological data from separate renal compartments in IR-injured mice. Hence, BOLD and DTI may also provide functional and pathophysiological data on the allograft status following kidney transplant without the need to use a contrast agent.
