Overview
Dr. Vighnesh Walavalkar is a pathologist who specializes in interpreting kidney biopsies as well as electron microscopy of various tissues (examining a biopsy sample through a special microscope that uses electrons for powerful magnification). In addition to his expertise in cytology (the study of cells to make diagnoses), he performs fine needle aspiration, a simple procedure in which a needle is used to draw a biopsy sample from a lump under the skin.
Walavalkar's research interests include renal diseases, kidney transplantation and cancer. He studies these conditions both at the cellular level and in relation to patient care.
Walavalkar earned his medical degree from Kasturba Medical College, Mangalore in India. He completed a residency in anatomic and clinical pathology at the University of California, Irvine Medical Center. At the University of Massachusetts Medical School, he completed a fellowship in surgical pathology, followed by a fellowship in cytopathology. He then completed a fellowship in renal pathology at UCSF.

Altmetrics Details
PMC Citations indicate the number of times the publication was cited by articles in PubMed Central, and the Altmetric score represents citations in news articles and social media.
(Note that publications are often cited in additional ways that are not shown here.)
Fields are based on how the National Library of Medicine (NLM) classifies the publication's journal and might not represent the specific topic of the publication.
Translation tags are based on the publication type and the MeSH terms NLM assigns to the publication.
Some publications (especially newer ones and publications not in PubMed) might not yet be assigned Field or Translation tags.)
