Parenchyma is the functional part of an organ (while stroma is the supporting tissue). Echogenicity means ability to produce an echo. So parenchymal echogenicity means the ability of the functional part of an organ to produce an echo (for ultrasound examination for example).

What does diffuse increase in renal parenchymal echogenicity mean and what are its causes?
renal parenchyal echogenicity crf mild
What are the causes of parenchymal echogenicity?
Parenchymal echogenicity can be affected by various factors, including inflammation, fatty infiltration, fibrosis, and changes in blood flow or perfusion. Other causes may include liver or kidney diseases, such as hepatitis, cirrhosis, or renal parenchymal disease, which can alter the density and echogenicity of the tissues. Additionally, age-related changes or medications can also impact parenchymal echogenicity.
What is renal parenchymal disease?
Chronic renal parenchymal disease
Is renal parenchymal disease treatable?
is renal parenchymal disease curable

What is bilateral grade 2 renal parenchymal disease?
In grad A change the cortical echogenicity (renal ) is greater than spleen but less than liver.Hint. These are ultrasonographic changes. By Dr. Jan Further detail www.frankdoctor.com
What is bilateral mild increased renal parenchymal disease?
Bilateral renal disease affects the kidneys and functions of the genitourinary system of the body. A physician who gives this diagnosis will explain the disease and treatment options.
How can you grade renal parenchymal disease on ultrasound?
Renal parenchymal disease basically appear echogenic. There are three grades of renal parenchymal disease. Grade 1: the Kidney parenchyma is isoechoic to the liver, but there is still cortiomedullary differentiation. Grade 2: the kidney parenchyma is hyperechoic to the liver with preservation of corticomedullary differentiation. Grade 3: kidney appears hyperechoic. No corticomedullary differentiation!
What causes diffusely increased parenchymal echogenicity?
There isn't enough information to answer the question. Diffusely increased echogenicity just means that the organ was more solid, but you didn't tell what part of the body or what the person's symptoms are.
Renal parenchymal disease what it means?
This means disease of the kidney cells (nephrons) themselves. It usually implies less than optimal capacity to process waste (such as urinary creatinine).
What is a treatment of renal parenchymal disease?
blood pressure patient having left renal paranchymal disease around 60 years old what,s the treatment and how much danger it was
Your ultrasound shows mild increase in the cortical echogenicity of both kidneys but your renal tests are normal. Ultrasound tests done earlier never indicated this before Is this sign of kidney?
This is essentially a normal kidney ultrasound. A mild cortical echogenicity in both kidneys, and normal renal function can occur in pregnancy when your over-all blood volume is increased.
