Table 3.

Estimated renal perfusion and flow parameters measured with DCE-MRI. Values represent the mean of parameters in the right and left kidney, except for global GFR, which is the sum of right and left kidney GFR. Whole kidney MTT= MTT_A+ MTT_P+ MTT_L. Whole kidney RPF is the sum of medulla and cortex RPF. MTT_A: vascular compartment MTT, MTT_P: proximal tubule MTT, and MTT_L: loop of Henle MTT.

	RPF (ml/min)	MTT (s)	GFR (ml/min)
Kidney	150.21 ± 85.57	117.88 ± 27.20	49.64 ± 17.97
	RPF (ml/min)	MTT_A (s)	MTT_P (s)
Cortex	121.06 ± 73.37^*	11.19 ± 2.04	69.76 ± 21.19
	RPF (ml/min)	MTT_L (s)
Medulla	33.91 ± 16.79	39.71 ± 12.55

Denotes significantly higher values (Mann-Whitney test, p <0.05).
