Investigations:
Note:

*[[Ultrasonography]] is the preferred tool for the diagnosis of ADPKD due to its safety profile and low cost.  
* Among patients who present with clinical signs of [disease name], the [investigation name] is the most sensitive test for diagnosis.
*In patients with a positive family history, the diagnosis of ADPKD is based on the detection of bilateral fluid-filled [[renal]] [[cysts]].  
* Among patients who present with clinical signs of [disease name], the [investigation name] is the most efficient test for diagnosis.
*Ultrasound imaging is highly sensitive and can detect [[cysts]] > 1 cm in diameter.<ref name="pmid16310571‎">{{cite journal| author=O'Neill WC, Robbin ML, Bae KT, Grantham JJ, Chapman AB, Guay-Woodford LM et al.| title=Sonographic assessment of the severity and progression of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease: the Consortium of Renal Imaging Studies in Polycystic Kidney Disease (CRISP). | journal=Am J Kidney Dis | year= 2005 | volume= 46 | issue= 6 | pages= 1058-64 | pmid=16310571‎ | doi=10.1053/j.ajkd.2005.08.026 | pmc= | url=http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/eutils/elink.fcgi?dbfrom=pubmed&tool=sumsearch.org/cite&retmode=ref&cmd=prlinks&id=16310571  }} </ref>

Overview

The diagnostic study of choice for polycystic kidney disease is ultrasound. Findings on an ultrasound diagnostic of polycystic kidney disease include, atleast three unilateral or bilateral cysts in patients 15 - 39 years old, atleast two cysts in each kidney in patients 40 - 59 years old, atleast four cysts in each kidney in patients 60 years of age or older.

Diagnostic Study of Choice

Study of choice

The diagnostic study of choice for polycystic kidney disease is ultrasound.

Diagnostic results

The following finding(s) on performing renal ultrasound are confirmatory for ADPKD:

  • Atleast three unilateral or bilateral cysts in patients 15 - 39 years old
  • Atleast two cysts in each kidney in patients 40 - 59 years old
  • Atleast four cysts in each kidney in patients 60 years of age or older

Note:

  • Ultrasonography is the preferred tool for the diagnosis of ADPKD due to its safety profile and low cost.
  • In patients with a positive family history, the diagnosis of ADPKD is based on the detection of bilateral fluid-filled renal cysts.
  • Ultrasound imaging is highly sensitive and can detect cysts > 1 cm in diameter.[1]
Sequence of Diagnostic Studies

The [name of investigation] should be performed when:

  • The patient presented with symptoms/signs 1, 2, and 3 as the first step of diagnosis.
  • A positive [test] is detected in the patient, to confirm the diagnosis.

Diagnostic Criteria

According to the KDIGO guidelines and the unified criteria for ultasonographic assessment the following findings are diagnostic of ADPKD:[2][3]

  • Atleast three unilateral or bilateral cysts in patients 15 - 39 years old
  • Atleast two cysts in each kidney in patients 40 - 59 years old
  • Atleast four cysts in each kidney in patients 60 years of age or older
