Diameter-Axial-Polar Nephrometry: Integration and Optimization of R.E.N.A.L. and Centrality Index Scoring Systems

DAP nephrometry integrates the optimized attributes of the R.E.N.A.L. and centrality index scoring systems. DAP scoring was associated with simplified methodology, decreased measurement error, improved performance characteristics, improved interpretability and a clear association with volume loss and late function after partial nephrectomy.
