Routine Doppler Ultrasonography Does Not Differentiate Acute Tubular Necrosis and Rejection in Early Pediatric Kidney Transplantation
RI thresholds and trends do not differentiate ATN and rejection in pediatric KT. Temporal RI rise likely reflects systemic hemodynamic adaptation rather than pathology, limiting its standalone diagnostic utility. Future studies should integrate multimodal approaches with RI, clinical, and biochemical markers to refine noninvasive strategies.
