[The contribution of color-coded Doppler in early vascular complications of kidney transplantation]

Ultrasound techniques and radionuclide studies are very often used to assess vascularization of renal transplants. Although, in acute tubular necrosis or acute rejection, it is difficult to choose between these two techniques, in 3 recent cases of renal artery thrombosis, we conclude that color coded Doppler is preferable to nuclear medicine or duplex system to diagnose this form of thrombosis.
