The non-invasive biopsy—will urinary proteomics make the renal tissue biopsy redundant
QJM: An International Journal of Medicine, 06/25/09
Bramham K et al. - Urinary proteomics is now moving from a discovery phase in small studies to a validation phase in much larger numbers of patients with renal disease. Whilst there are still some limitations in methodology, which are assessed in this review, the possibility of urinary proteomics replacing the invasive tissue biopsy for diagnosis of renal disease is becoming an increasingly realistic option.
