Glomerular capillary hemorrhage (GCH) induced by ultrasonic cavitation during diagnostic imaging represents a unique contrast-agent related nephron injury. Consequences of GCH during 1.5 MHz diagnostic ultrasound with contrast agent were examined by histological methods in rats. Definity was infused at 10 μl/kg/min for 5 min at the start of 8 min of intermittent image-exposure with 2.3 MPa in situ peak rarefactional pressure amplitude. Kidney samples were taken for histology at 5 min, 30 min, 4 h, 2 d, 1 wk and 4 wks post exposure. In addition, samples were taken at 4 h from groups treated with heparin or aminocaproic acid. GCH was found in 61% of glomeruli in the center of the scan plane 5 min after exposure, which declined (P<0.05) to 36.3 % after 4 hr. The width of Bowman’s space was significantly increased for glomeruli with GCH relative to glomeruli without GCH (P<0.05), consistent with tubular obstruction. Antibody staining revealed fibrin clotting in Bowman’s space in 4 hr samples and this persisted in the 2 d samples. Heparin reduced and aminocaproic acid increased the GCH seen in 4 h samples. Tubular dilatation was evident with injury to the epithelium after 2d. After 1 week, areas of inflammatory cell infiltration were present. After 4 weeks, areas of interstitial fibrosis were revealed by Masson’s trichrome stain. The consequences of GCH induced by diagnostic ultrasound with contrast agents include rupture of glomerular capillaries, procoagulant activity resulting in intra-tubular obstruction, and the potential for progression of the resulting tubular injury toward interstitial fibrosis.
