title: New diagnostic techniques for imaging the renal arteries.
abstract: There has been an increasing focus on renovascular disease, particularly in renal failure, and on the role of renal angioplasty and stenting. Significant improvements have occurred in non-invasive imaging techniques. This review concentrates on the recent developments in imaging that specifically targets the renal artery and renal artery stenosis. It also discusses how these techniques may facilitate better selection of cases that will respond to intervention.
