| Ultrasound is frequently used as the first-line imaging modality in transplant renal artery stenosis, but it is highly operator dependent and may miss cases. |
| Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty is an effective treatment for patients with TRAS. The additional use of stenting may reduce the need for re-intervention. |
