Abstract:

Acute kidney injury(AKI) is a commonly encountered clinical acute disease. Monitoring glomerular filtration rate(GFR) with exogenous fluorescent tracers in a non-invasive and real-time manner is of high importance in clinical practice for timely understanding of renal function in susceptible patients. This paper gives a comprehensive review of recent advances on exogenous fluorescent tracers for in vivo monitoring of glomerular filtration rate, with particular focus on the design strategy of fluorescent tracers and their application on in vivo imaging, as well as the development of corresponding detection devices. In the last part, we discuss the challenges and the development prospect in this field.

Key words: Glomerular filtration rate(GFR), Fluorescent tracer, Real-time monitoring, Acute kidney injury
