The Problem
100,000
Patients waiting for a donor kidney (5,000 die every year waiting)
3,500
1
Kidneys procured for transplantation are discarded every year
3x
Kidneys that are biopsied are three times more likely to be discarded
Adoption of Trusted Kidney in biopsy evaluation has the potential to decrease an institution’s organ discard rate.
Artificial Intelligence can help solve the donor organ shortage. At Trusted Kidney, we are doing our part to reduce organ discard. AI-powered biopsies give more accurate results, leading to more transplants and better patient outcomes.

Deep Learning Model for Global Glomerulosclerosis
Researchers developed a Deep Learning model that identifies and classifies non-sclerosed and sclerosed glomeruli in whole-slide images of donor kidney frozen section biopsies. The model performed as well as expert pathologists, and can be used to support more accurate biopsy evaluation.
