Fig. 4From: Sonographically determined kidney measurements are better able to predict histological changes and a low CKD-EPI eGFR when weighted towards cortical echogenicityReceiver operating characteristic curve to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of weighted (w) for cortical echogenicity cortical thickness (w-CT), kidney length (w-KL) and the kidney length/height ratio (w-KL/H) to predict severe grades of chronic histological changes (glomerular sclerosis, tubular atrophy and interstitial fibrosis) based on a total score > 7Back to article page
