Furosemide, a loop diuretic, is widely used to prevent renal medullary hypoxia in acute kidney disease by uncoupling sodium metabolism, but its effects on medullary perfusion in humans are unknown. We performed quantitative imaging of both renal perfusion and oxygenation using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) before and during furosemide. Based on the literature, we hypothesized that furosemide would increase medullary oxygenation, decrease medullary perfusion, but cause minor changes (&lt;10%) in renal artery flow (RAF).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title><jats:p>Interleaved measurements of RAF, oxygenation (<jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>*) and perfusion by arterial spin labelling in the renal cortex and medulla of 9 healthy subjects were acquired before and after an injection of 20\u00a0mg furosemide. They were preceded by measurements made during isometric exercise (5\u00a0minutes handgrip bouts), which are known to induce changes in renal hemodynamics, that served as a control for the sensitivity of the hemodynamic MRI measurements. Experiments were repeated on a second day to establish that the measurements and the induced changes were reproducible.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>After furosemide, <jats:italic>T<\/jats:italic><jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub>* values in the medulla increased by 53% (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0&lt;\u00a00.01) while RAF and perfusion remained constant.
