The Renal Artery Doppler Ultrasound uses high frequency sound waves to assess the blood flow into and out of the kidneys. If you have uncontrolled high blood pressure, your doctor may request this exam to determine if there is a narrowing in the blood vessels leading to each kidney from the aorta.
What is normal RAR ratio?
In normal conditions, RAR is lower than 3.5. If PSV obtained in the prerenal abdominal aorta is abnormally low (less than 40 cm/s), RAR cannot be used. In one study, a RAR of 3.5 or greater identified hemodynamically significant lesions with a sensitivity and specificity of 91–92% and 75–95%, respectively [21,22].
What is normal renal artery velocity?
The PSV in the main renal artery ranges from 60 to 100 cm/sec (11). Acceleration time is the time from the start of systole to peak systole. A normal acceleration time for the main renal artery is less than 70 msec.
