Keywords: Kidney, TransplantationHere, we investigate in a porcine model how MR parameters change as donor kidneys are cold stored, by studying the effect of temperature, cold ischaemia time and compare static cold storage (SCS) with hypothermic machine perfusion (HMP).
Variation in relaxometry measurements with temperature has been modelled allowing the comparison of in-vivo and ex-vivo datasets, especially important when considering T1 measurements. The effects of cold ischemia time on relaxometry measures have also been quantified allowing this confounding factor to be accounted for in larger studies of human deceased donor organs. Susceptibility Weighted Imaging observed blood products in an SCS porcine kidney.
