Patterns of cortical oxygenation may predict the response to stenting in subjects with renal artery stenosis: A radiomics-based model
Percutaneous-transluminal renal angioplasty (PTRA) and stenting aim to halt the progression of kidney disease in patients with renal artery stenosis (RAS), but its outcome is often suboptimal. We hypothesized that a model incorporating markers of renal function and oxygenation extracted using radiomics analysis of blood oxygenation-level dependent (BOLD)-MRI images may predict renal response to PTRA in swine RAS.
