Description

Axel Bartoli and eight co-authors build a half-auto scan tool that sizes the kidney ground each artery feeds, to plan aorta repair in folks with a joined horseshoe kidney. Their study appeared in twenty twenty-four. Such kidneys bear extra arteries in odd counts and paths, so cuts risk wide harm. The tool tags artery mouths and ends on scans and gives each patch of kidney to its nearest end.

Mean artery count was four, and mean whole kidney size near three hundred sixty units. Loss guessed from pre-surgery scans tracked true loss post-surgery with a tight link. Two readers matched well. The team says the tool can show which arteries can be cut with care.
