Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Renal angiogram is the most appropriate diagnostic test ordered to assess the blood flow through a patient's kidneys. It is a procedure that uses X-rays and dye injection to visualize the kidney arteries. The image obtained from renal angiogram can show any narrowing or blockages in the kidney's blood vessels. Cystoscopy, retrograde pyelogram, MRI, and VCUG are not tests used to assess blood flow in the kidneys.
