Renal toxicity is typically diagnosed through a combination of clinical assessment and laboratory tests. Key indicators include:
- Serum Creatinine and Blood Urea Nitrogen (BUN): Elevated levels can indicate impaired kidney function. - Urinalysis: Can reveal proteinuria, hematuria, or the presence of casts, which are indicative of kidney damage. - Imaging Studies: Ultrasound or CT scans may be used to assess structural changes in the kidneys.
