title: Renalomics: Molecular Pathology in Kidney Biopsies.
abstract: In this article, various omics technologies and their applications in renal pathology (native and transplant biopsies) are reviewed and discussed. Despite significant progress and novel insights derived from these applications, extensive adoption of molecular diagnostics in renal pathology has not been accomplished. Further validation of specific applications leading to increased diagnostic precision in a clinically relevant way is ongoing.
