Background summary
Renal artery stenosis is a common cause of essential hypertension. It is
expected that it causes ischemic deviations in the kidney. It's therefor very
important to diagnose renal artery stenosis in an early stage, so patients can
start early with an intervention. This should prevent severe kidney disease. We
want to investigate the utility of the BOLD (Blood oxygen level dependent) MRI
in the diagnosis of renal artery stenosis.
Study objective
Is the BOLD MRI able to show the difference in the level of oxygenation as a
mesurement of ischemia between a in a healthy kidney (<30% renal artery
stenosis) and a kidney with more than 70% artery stenosis?
Study design
Prospective case control study without intervention
Study burden and risks
Patients will visit the hospital once. It conserns a MRI scan, to define the
level of oxygenation of the kidney. We do not expect any risks, physically and
mentally, for our subjects. The risk for participate in our study is very low,
since we comply to the conditions of an MRI scan, compare to the checklist MRI
of the department of radiology in our hospital.
