Diagnostic Testing Logic
Living Donor Recipient Boundaries: A real team would review kidney status, dialysis needs, donor eligibility, psychosocial readiness, consent, risks, medical history, and support needs. The available evidence does not support adding unshown labs, medication doses, compatibility details, timestamps, or definitive outcomes.
