Abstract：Objective: To explore the reliability of three-dimensional color power angiography(3D-CPA) ultrasound parameter vascular index(VI) to assess the degree of renal damage of chronic kidney disease(CKD). Methods: Sixty patients suspected with chronic kidney disease underwent 3D-CPA and percutaneous biopsy, and 30 healthy adults served as control. The VI and pathological change scoring of renal were measured, and the correlation of VI and pathological findings as well as clasification of CKD were analyzed. Results: Different types of renal diseases had different VI; Thirty-three patients in the group I, the diseases limited to the glomeruli, VI(37.64%±9.97%) was closed to that of the control group(33.44%±4.31%)(P≥0.05). Twenty-eight patients in group II, the diseases positioned in the tubulo-interstitial and blood vessel, VI(23.34%±12.12%) was higher than that of group I and the control group(P<0.05). There was a significant correlation between the value of VI and classification of CKD. Conclusions: VI can reflect the types of renal diseases. In case of CKD with VI in normal limit, the diseases may be limited to the glomeruli; while the VI elevated, the diseases may locate in the tubulo-interstitial or blood vessel; The lower the VI, the higher the classification of CKD.
