Abstract:
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) requires early diagnostic tools beyond conventional methods. Therefore, it is of interest to establish normative renal cortical elasticity values using point Shear Wave Elastography (pSWE) in 289 healthy adults aged 20-50 years in Ranchi, India. Mean elasticity was 1.53 ± 0.196 m/sec (right kidney) and 1.52 ± 0.130 m/sec (left), with no significant side difference. Elasticity showed no association with age, gender, renal dimensions, or cortical thickness, but demonstrated a significant negative correlation with BMI and parenchymal thickness. These reference values support future SWE-based evaluation of renal pathologies in the Indian population.

The sonic test is a common method to determine the dynamic modulus. In this test, a concrete beam, sized either 6 x 6 x 30 inches or 4 x 4 x 20 inches, is clamped at its center. Vibrations are initiated at one end of the beam by an electromagnetic exciter unit powered by a...
