Functional renal imaging sequences

Sequence Type	Description
MR-perfusion and filtration measurements	Allow assessment of renal blood flow and calculation of split renal function
Diffusion-weighted imaging/Diffusion tensor imaging	ADC-values roughly correlate with renal function, FA-values can be used as marker for renal fibrosis
BOLD-Measurements	Specific R2* changes can be seen in various diseases (ATN, chronic rejection)
T2-Measurements	Experimental technique wherein T2 seems to correlate with renal function
