The U.S. National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK) awarded a $702,754 Project Grant (CFDA 93.847 - Diabetes, Digestive, and Kidney Diseases Extramural Research) to Mayo Clinic to develop artificial intelligence-based methods for characterizing kidney macrostructure from pre- and post-nephrectomy computed tomography (CT) images. The goal is to evaluate automated imaging biomarkers as prognostic tools for predicting progressive chronic kidney disease in patients who have undergone radical or partial nephrectomy for kidney cancer. The project will focus on: 1) determining whether the degree of compensatory hypertrophy in the retained kidney after nephrectomy predicts progressive chronic kidney disease, 2) assessing whether the number and size of kidney cysts can predict progressive chronic kidney disease, and 3) evaluating whether novel radiological imaging texture features on pre-surgery scans are reflective of microstructural measures and can predict progressive chronic kidney disease. This research will leverage Mayo Clinic's expertise in kidney anatomy, advanced image processing, and biostatistics to create a tool that can guide clinical decision-making and improve patient care.
