[Abstract] Acute obstructive kidney injury refers to a decline in renal function caused by urinary tract obstruction. In early stage, most patients lack specific signs or symptoms other than renal angina. However, clinical common laboratory indexes, such as serum creatinine, are used to evaluate whether the sensitivity of renal function is lower, but unable to measure the changes of single renal function. Nevertheless, treatment delay can lead to irreversible renal injury. Along with the development of magnetic resonance imaging, MRI can not only identify the site, cause and degree of urological obstruction, but also be sensitive to the secondary pathophysiological changes after the urinary obstruction in the early stage. It can quantitatively and accurately evaluate the changes of single renal function. Therefore, most patients can be corrected through early diagnosis and intervention. MRI has become a substitute of non-invasive methods for evaluating the renal function after urinary tract obstruction via one-stop scanning of anatomy and function.
