BackgroundKidney volumetry derived from CT has been proposed as a surrogate of renal function in living kidney donor evaluation. However, clinical integration has been limited by reader-dependent workflows and semiautomatic methods susceptible to image quality. PurposeTo evaluate whether fully automated CT-based segmentation of renal cortex, medulla and total parenchymal volume provides reproducible volumetric biomarkers associated with global and split renal function in living kidney donor can...
