Abstract
A study of the relation between dynamic measurements of renal perfusion and the physiological state of the preserved kidney make it possible to predict posttransplant immediate function. This report describes the measurement of perfusion dynamic changes during preservation and the model utilized for comparing damaged and nondamaged kidneys.
