Overview
Duplex ultrasonography is a first line non-invasive imaging technique for the diagnosis of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis.
Duplex Ultrasonography
Diagnosis by Duplex ultrasonography is considered class I recommendation. It may be used as an initial screening tool for diagnosis of atherosclerotic renal artery stenosis. Ultrasonography might not be very accurate in obese patients or those intestinal gas.[1]

Abdominal pain in a patient with previous renal transplant. 1) Juxtanephric mass surrounding renal vessels, differential includes adenopathy, hematoma and abscess. 2) Renal artery stenosis of CRT. -

Case #1
-
Renal artery stenosis. The patient is a 75 year old white female with a history of hypertension. she is s/p left nephrectomy approximately 10 years ago for renal cell carcinoma. 1. Definite renal artery stenosis involving the origin of the right renal artery. 2. Focal dilatation of the distal abdominal aorta, but no frank aneurysm. -
