Renal echography remains the least expensive means for the exploration of the kidney. The system that we propose is a contribution for the diagnostic automatic of the kidney on ultrasound image. The analysis of texture is a technique which proved reliable in the field of the characterization of the human organs on ultrasound images. Indeed, our contribution aims at the characterization of the images of echographic textures of the kidney. This characterization is, in a first level, structural to evaluate the presence (form and position) of the various components of the kidney (clusters, medullary cortical zone). The statistical analysis of texture constitutes our second approach by carrying out virtual punctures on the kidney in order to be able to evaluate its state by quantifying the texture of the various areas characteristic of the kidney .
