Summary

This study tests a new ultrasound method that uses a contrast agent to create detailed images of blood vessels in the kidneys. Researchers want to see if this can help diagnose chronic kidney disease more accurately. The study includes both healthy volunteers and people with kidney disease who need a biopsy. If successful, this could reduce the need for invasive kidney biopsies.
