Photo Elicitation Interviewing Exposes Educational Discordance Amidst a Web of Resources among Kidney Transplant Recipients
General Surgery, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, MI
*Purpose: Comprehensive patient education is the bedrock of success for kidney transplant (KT) recipients. Despite the importance, we have a poor understanding of how patients…2020 American Transplant Congress
Hyperspectral Imaging of Human Kidney Allografts
*Purpose: Hyperspectral imaging (HSI) is capable to deliver non-contact, non-ionizing and non-invasive quantitative diagnostic information about tissue pathology, morphology and composition, based on the spectral…2020 American Transplant Congress
Accelerated Decline in Glomerular Density: An Unrecognized Pathologic Process after Kidney Transplantation
Mayo Clinic, Rochester, Rochester, MN
*Purpose: Studies in healthy adults have shown that glomerular density slowly declines with older age (-0.5% per decade), and globally sclerotic glomeruli (GSG) slowly increase…2020 American Transplant Congress
Kidney Cortical Wedge Biopsies for Human Organ Research: Does Anatomic Variability Impact Their Utility?
*Purpose: The purpose of this study is to characterize human kidney anatomic variability both within singular biopsies and between biopsy sites in order to investigate…2020 American Transplant Congress
Computer-Assisted Cardiac Histologic Evaluation (CACHE) for Grading Cardiac Allograft Rejection
*Purpose: Cardiac allograft rejection (CAR) is a serious concern in heart transplantation, occurring in 30-40% of patients during the first year. Endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) with…2020 American Transplant Congress
Noninvasive Imaging of CD122+ T Cells via Immuno-PET for Detection of Acute Cellular Rejection
*Purpose: Acute cellular rejection (ACR) remains a clinically important problem following organ transplantation. Clinically, suspicion of ACR is dependent upon serum laboratory values, and diagnosis…2020 American Transplant Congress
Imaging OX40+Alloreactive T Cells Provides Early Warning of Organ Transplant Rejection
*Purpose: Diagnosis of organ transplant rejection relies upon biopsy approaches to confirm alloreactive T cell infiltration in the graft. Immuno positron emission tomography (immunoPET) utilizing…2019 American Transplant Congress
Digital Imaging Software vs. the “Eyeball” Method in Quantifying Steatosis in a Liver Biopsy
*Purpose: The use of steatotic livers is controversial, but may represent an underutilized resource to increase the donor pool. Although2019 American Transplant Congress
Ex Vivo Normothermic Perfusion Of Discarded Human Kidneys Reveals Cold-storage-induced Renal Fibrinogen And Provides A Platform For Therapeutic Repair
*Purpose: The purpose of this study was to: 1) determine the cause of microvascular obstructions that arise during ex vivo normothermic perfusion (NMP) of human…2019 American Transplant Congress
Indocyanine Green Fluorescence Imaging during Normothermic Ex Vivo Liver Perfusion for the Assessment of Hepatocyte, Biliary, and Vascular Function
Multi-Organ Transplant Program, Department of Surgery, Toronto General Hospital, Toronto, ON, Canada
*Purpose: Normothermic Ex Vivo Liver Perfusion (NEVLP) is a novel preservation for the storage and assessment of marginal grafts, such as Donation after Cardio-circulatory Death…
