Renal Ultrasound
Renal ultrasound is generally recommended in the initial work-up for patients with FSGS. Renal ultraound helps identify the size and the echogenicity of the kidneys.
Renal Ultrasound
There are no echocardiography/ultrasound findings associated with [disease name].
OR
Echocardiography/ultrasound may be helpful in the diagnosis of [disease name]. Findings on an echocardiography/ultrasound suggestive of/diagnostic of [disease name] include:
- [Finding 1]
- [Finding 2]
- [Finding 3]
Routine renal ultraound is recommended in patients with FSGS to monitor kidney size and echogenicity.[1]
