Study of renal parenchymal disease Using Ultrasound

Abstract

Renal diseases are very common among Sudanese people, In this study changes that take place in the kidneys due to renal paranchymal diseases were described using Ultrasound imaging. this study included just ( Chronic Glomerular Nephritis, Chronic Pyelonephritis, Chronic Renal Failure, Acute Renal Failure, Acute Pyelonephritis, Acute Glomerular Nephritis, Nephritic Syndrome). this study retro spective , the main objective to evaluate sonographic findings in renal parenchymal disease to compare between lab result and sonographic findings , differentitiate between all renal parenchymal disease by Ultrasound. Also functional rates of the kidney were referred to, using lab investigations “Urea and Criatinene levels”. The study took place at Soba Hospital, involving 50 patients who have had lab and Ultrasound investigations. The study showed that the ages between (1-19) in the sample were the most affected 64% .both kidneys affected (92%) right kidney(6%), left kidney (2%).the percentage of the gender male(66%) female (34%), The labrotary investigation(creatinineand urea)determine the renal function more sensitive ,the minimum value level of creatinine(.2-3.6)as the common had(17)frequency,the maximum value(more than13.8)had minimum frequency(1).the urea the value(20-139)had the maximum frequency (29),the value (more than 380) had the minimum frequency (1) The u/s differentiate between acute and chronic , but not enable to distinct between all renal parenchymal disease, the percentage of acute (26) (52%), chronic (24) (48%), the renal size in acute (18) large, (8) normal, in chronic (19) small ,
