Abstract
Ultrasound technology is widely used in the diagnosis and evaluation of kidney diseases and in guiding some invasive procedures. Ultrasound has the advantages of low price, no radiation, convenience, and being easy to operate compared with other imaging methods. In recent years, new ultrasound technology has been developed. For example, studies have shown that ultrasound can protect against acute kidney injury and chronic kidney disease by activating the spleen cholinergic anti-inflammatory pathway. Through microbubble technology, contrast-enhanced ultrasound can more accurately assess the nature of renal lesions. Ultrasound-targeted microbubbles can also direct the release of drugs and genes to the lesions of interest. This article will review the research progress of ultrasound technology in the diagnosis and treatment of kidney diseases. Key words: Ultrasound; Kidney disease; Diagnosis and treatment; Progress
