Abstract
Monitoring the renal cortical microperfusion (RCM) can aid in the determination of an adequate treatment plan to eventually improve transplantation outcome and improve patient care. In this paper we report on a feasibility study on the use of LSCI to monitor RCM in human sized porcine kidneys using an isolated perfusion model and a Lapvas-Imaging speckle imager. Our data shows that there is a discrepancy between overall- and RCM perfusion indicating that the implementation of LSCI during transplant surgery could help with the establishment of an appropriate treatment plan possibly decreasing the chance of renal allograft rejection.
