Implication for health policy/practice/research/medical education:
Nephropathology is a rapidly evolving field which is at the forefront of modern
research because of the growing epidemic of kidney disease throughout the
world. Kidneys also constitute the most common solid organs for transplantation
in patients suffering from end-stage renal disease (ESRD). As a result, renal
transplant pathology has similarly emerged as one of the leading domains of the
subspecialty of nephropathology.
