Differentiating Diabetic nephropathy from other Diseases
The differential diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy includes a spectrum of nephrotic and nephritic renal diseases and other systemic diseases with renal manifestations. The diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy should not be directly presumed on the basis of presence of renal disease in a diabetic patient. The gold standard for the diagnosis of diabetic nephropathy is renal biopsy.
