A genetic disorder causing numerous cysts to grow in the kidneys, potentially leading to kidney failure. Early MRI detection enables monitoring and management of complications.
Our comprehensive check-up screens for polycystic kidney disease and hundreds of other conditions.
A waste product from protein metabolism filtered by the kidneys. Elevated levels can indicate reduced kidney function, but are also influenced by protein intake, dehydration, and certain medications.
Estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR)eGFR (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate): Calculated using the CKD-EPI formula based on creatinine level, age, sex, and ethnic background. It estimates how much blood your kidneys filter per minute, with normal values typically above 90 ml/min/1.73m². Values below 60 ml/min/1.73m² indicate moderate kidney impairment, while values below 30 ml/min/1.73m² signifies severe impairment.
CreatinineCreatinine is a waste product from muscle metabolism that's filtered by the kidneys and excreted in urine. Serum levels remain relatively constant with normal kidney function, making it a reliable marker for kidney filtration capacity. Elevated levels suggest reduced kidney function.
