Figure 1.

Diffusion tensor imaging analysis in a control group patient (eGFR of 105 mL/min). Circular ROIs were defined in the cortex and medulla on the ADC (A) and FA (B) maps of the right kidney, by using the T2 sequence for the correct placement (C): the corresponding values of the ADC were 2.54 and 2.23 × 10⁻³ mm²/s and the corresponding values of the FA were 0.26 and 0.40. ADC, apparent diffusion coefficient; eGFR, estimated glomerular filtration rate; FA, fractional anisotropy; ROIs, regions of interest.
