Role of CT attenuation values in kidney stones: a combination of clinical investigations and molecular mechanism elucidation
2023-11-28
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p>Randall's plaque theory suggests a systemic process that affects the kidneys, and unenhanced computed tomography (uCT) scans can identify changes in tissue density during stone formation. We carried out a retrospective cohort study comprising 163 kidney stone formers (KSFs) and 168 healthy control participants. The CT attenuation values of renal papillae in KSFs are significantly higher...
