We studied renal anatomy and function using 99mTc-2-3 dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA) in 27 patients with conduit urinary diversion. In this condition, free ureteral reflux is often associated with bacteriuria, and these factors are thought to preci
In nine patients with different types of proximal tubulopathy and a nearly normal glomerular filtration rate a low uptake of 99mTc-DMSA in kidneys was found. The underlying mechanism seems to be an increased urinary excretion of 99mTc-DMSA. This radiopharmaceutical might be used as a marker of proxi
A patient is described who had accelerated hypertension and unilateral renal artery stenosis, and who developed further deterioration in renal function during treatment with captopril, an angiotension-I (AI) converting-enzyme inhibitor. 99mTc-DMSA uptake was greatly diminished in the stenotic kidney
