Figure 2. Regional blood flow is altered following injury in ischemic AKI.

Figure 2

Immediately following ischemic injury total renal blood flow is reduced but more striking are the regional deficits in blood flow that exist in the cortex, outer stripe of outer medulla and inner stripe of the outer medulla as indicated in panel A (data from (251)). As overall blood flow starts to recover in the ensuing hours after injury, profound regional alterations in blood flow remain with progressive and profound reduction of the blood flow to the outer stripe of the outer medulla as indicated in B (data from (202)).
