Ultrasound diagnostics of the dialysis-related amyloidosis

Dialysis-related amyloidosis (DRA) is a serious complication arising in the context of long-term hemodialysis or continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. DRA predominantly involves the osteoarticular system and is clinically manifested by erosive and destructive osteoarthropathies and carpal tunne...
