Practice Point 2.2.3 underscores using a 2-year kidney failure risk threshold of >40% to determine modality education and timing for KRT preparation, including vascular access planning or transplantation referral. Predicting the optimal timing for these interventions in individuals with declining GFR is challenging. Premature vascular access planning may lead to unnecessary fistula placement, while delayed planning risks central venous catheter overuse at dialysis initiation. Studies advocate for risk-based thresholds, demonstrating comparable efficacy to eGFR alone. While the KDOQI vascular access guideline suggests a >50% risk threshold or eGFR <15 ml/min per 1.73 m², a >40% risk or eGFR of 15 ml/min per 1.73 m² is deemed acceptable for initiating vascular access referral based on current evidence. Lower risk thresholds, like >20%, enhance sensitivity and can prompt modality education or presurgical vascular access planning, particularly in centers with extended wait times.

3rd Annual High-Performance MRI Neuroscience Conference Congratulations to Drs. Andrew Alexander, Steven Kecskemeti, and Michael Anderle for organizing a highly successful 3rd Annual High-Performance MRI Neuroscience Conference at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. There were over 100 participants in-person and online for this conference that focused on high-performance imaging of the brain and brain function. The conference discussed new applications enabled by dedicated high-performance gradients at 3.0 Tesla. Topics included high-resolution imaging of the brain stem and cortex, flow imaging (including glymphatic flow), epilepsy, sleep, traumatic brain injury, and fMRI.
