Volumetric measurement of renal cysts and parenchyma using MRI : Phantoms and patients with polycystic kidney disease

We have developed an MR method to measure the volumes of renal cysts and parenchyma in patients with polycystic kidney disease. Phantoms were designed to simulate polycystic kidneys. Four patients were recruited. MR scans were performed on the phantoms and patients. A stereology technique was applie...
