[Postoperative monitoring of transplanted kidneys using color Doppler sonography]

In 52 renal transplant patients a prospective study was carried out to compare the validity of szintigraphy and color-duplex-sonography for demonstrating the renal blood flow. In 49 cases the questions bout intra-allograft blood flow could be answered. In two cases szintigraphy was unable to make a right evidence. Angiodynography is a non invasive method to demonstrate the blood flow in renal allografts and is able to replace the szintigraphy.
