Discussion

Functional MRI techniques assess kidney function in transplant recipients, suggesting a non-invasive alternative to biopsy.

Functional MRI techniques enhance the non-invasive assessment of kidney function after transplantation, enabling better monitoring.
Techniques like diffusion-weighted imaging and magnetic resonance elastography provide critical insights into kidney status.
These imaging methods allow for a dynamic evaluation of perfusion and microstructure changes in transplanted kidneys.
Adopting non-invasive imaging could reduce reliance on invasive biopsies, decreasing patient risk and discomfort.

Ma et al. (2025) studied this question.
