Application and Impact Assessment of Ultrasound Super-Resolution Blood Flow Imaging (URM) in Patients With Renal Failure (URM)

March 16, 2026 updated by: Ma Zhe
The aim of this study is to evaluate the utility of URM technology in imaging renal microcirculatory blood flow in patients with renal failure, and to investigate its clinical feasibility for assessing renal function, disease staging and monitoring treatment response.
