AbstractBackground: Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) images can visualize kidney glomerular filtration barrier ultrastructure, including the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) and podocyte foot processes (PFP). Podocytopathy is associated with glomerular filtration barrier morphological changes observed experimentally and clinically by measuring GBM or PFP width. However, these measurements are currently performed manually.
