    How Is GFR Calculated in a KFT Test?

    GFR is calculated using the CKD-EPI formula, which incorporates serum creatinine levels, age, sex, and sometimes race. The resulting eGFR value estimates how efficiently the kidneys filter blood. Accurate GFR calculations are essential for diagnosing chronic kidney disease (CKD) and staging its progression. Advanced tests, like inulin clearance, measure GFR directly but are less commonly used due to complexity.
