Summary

The purpose of this research is to study the efficacy of ultrasound microvessel imaging for evaluation of Chronic Kidney Disease. Definity is an ultrasound contrast agent currently approved by the FDA for use on the heart, liver, and urinary tract. This study will look at its effectiveness on the kidney.

Conditions

  • Healthy
  • Chronic Kidney Diseases

Interventions

DRUG

Definity

Ultrasound contrast agent administered intravenously

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Super-resolution ultrasound imaging

Imaging technology for microvessel imaging. This technology localizes and tracks individual microbubbles (FDA approved ultrasound contrast agents) to map microvessel morphology and flow speed at a spatial resolution about 10 times higher than conventional ultrasound imaging.
