Ultrasound-Guided Kidney Biopsy in Nagpur
Safe, real-time ultrasound-guided percutaneous renal biopsy for accurate diagnosis of unexplained proteinuria, hematuria, and renal dysfunction.
A kidney biopsy is the gold standard diagnostic procedure in nephrology, obtaining a tiny tissue sample to identify the exact cause of kidney disease under light microscopy, immunofluorescence, and electron microscopy. Dr. Jitesh Jeswani performs painless, ultrasound-guided biopsies with automated spring-loaded needles for maximum safety.
Treatment Overview & Nephrology Care
When blood and urine tests indicate significant kidney inflammation, protein loss, or unexplained rapid decline in kidney function, a kidney biopsy provides an exact histopathological diagnosis. This distinguishes between conditions like Nephrotic Syndrome, Glomerulonephritis, Lupus Nephritis, and interstitial diseases, ensuring the patient receives precisely targeted treatment rather than generic therapy.
Dr. Jitesh Jeswani brings international training from Manchester Royal Infirmary (UK) and experience in 800+ renal transplants to every patient protocol.

Frequently Asked Questions about Kidney Biopsy
Is a kidney biopsy painful?
No. Local anesthesia is administered to numb the skin and deep muscle layers completely. Patients feel only a minor pressure sensation during the 15-minute procedure.
What precautions are needed before a kidney biopsy?
Patients must have normal coagulation parameters (PT/INR, platelet count), controlled blood pressure, and temporarily stop blood-thinning medications (like Aspirin or Clopidogrel) 5 to 7 days prior under doctor guidance.
