  23. Conclusions 1) Imaging for surgical planning • Imaging techniques (US) may support optimal surgical planning and ameliorate clinical outcome of AVF • AVF.SIM system was successfully introduced in the routine clinical setting • Mario Negri Institute provides a free service , if interested in testing write an email to avf.sim@marionegri.it 2) Imaging for elucidating mechanisms of AVF failure • Imaging techniques (MRI and US) may be useful to identify hemodynamic predictors of AVF stenosis. • Our novel MRI protocol provided high-resolution images and, combined with CFD, allows to characterize AVF’s morphological and hemodynamic evolution • On going sequential investigations will help to elucidate the role of local hemodynamics in stenosis formation
