First seen May 14, 2026 · Last updated May 14, 2026
Summary
This study looks at people with end-stage kidney disease who need a special vein connection (called a brachiocephalic fistula) for dialysis. The goal is to understand why this vein often narrows over time, which can cause problems with dialysis. Researchers will use imaging and computer models to track changes in the vein, hoping to find ways to prevent future complications.
