A member asked:
I was wondering what are the procedures (prequiste) to transplant the kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Thorough evaluation: There are no specific procedures; but donor evaluation will include a thorough determination of your current health status, prior history of medical illnesses and surgical procedures, testing of your kidney function, and imaging (x-rays) of the abdomen and kidneys to determine their precise anatomy. In addition, psychosocial evaluation of your reasons to donate and health will be discussed.
