A morphometric study was done on 100 human kidneys by using IADSA in potential renal donors. Any donor with a pathology was excluded and their age ranged from 15 to 80 years. The result of renal measures showed the following averages: right kidney length 118.5mm (+/- 12mm), left kidney length 122.6mm (+/- 14mm). Thickness of right kidney was 59.8mm (+/- 4mm) and left kidney was 54.8mm (+/- 3mm). Left kidney presented usually greater length and the right kidney presented with greater width.
