研究组 & 干预措施
Contrast
All subjects will be recruited into this arm. All subjects will receive 0.03 ml/kg IV sulfur hexafluoride type-a lipid microspheres one time, unless a second, adjusted dose is necessary.
干预措施: Sulfur hexafluoride type-a lipid microspheres (Drug)
结局指标
主要结局
Visualization of Renal Scars Compared to Previous Imaging
时间窗: 1 hour
The study will evaluate the contrast agent's ability to enable the ultrasound to produce adequate images of the kidneys as compared to the subject's previous renal imaging. This outcome will be measured in percentage of scars visualized by other imaging methods that were detected by using the contrast agent.
次要结局
