Clinical Practice Session
Dilemmas in the Management of Glomerular Diseases
October 22, 2026 | 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM
Location: Mile High Ballroom 2, Convention Center
Session Description
With the rapidly changing management landscape for glomerular diseases, this session reviews current challenges in diagnosis, prognostication, and treatment, with a particular focus on the roles of genetic testing and kidney biopsy in diagnosis and their potential future role in treatment selection. Future advances in risk stratification and prognostication are reviewed, as is the need for measures to assess the effects of living with a glomerular disease beyond eGFR and proteinuria.
Learning Objective(s)
- Discuss challenges in diagnosing of glomerular diseases
- Discuss challenges in risk-stratifying glomerular diseases
- Discuss challenges in prioritizing treatment of glomerular diseases
Learning Pathway(s)
