CTSC Alumni Muthukumar, Lee, & Dadhania Publish Study on a New Noninvasive Urine Test

CTSC Alumni Thangamani Muthukumar, John R. Lee, & Darshana M. Dadhania, published a study on a new urine test for detection of Kidney Dysfunction in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology (JASN). Dr. Muthukumar notes, “Our study shows that when the creatinine level is elevated in the blood of a kidney transplant recipient, use of our urine test would differentiate the common causes of kidney dysfunction that led to the elevation in creatinine, hence benefiting many patients by allowing them to avoid the need for an invasive needle biopsy.”
