Off-site determinations of effective renal plasma flow using technetium-99m-MAG3 and single blood sampling.
UNLABELLED This study evaluated the feasibility of determining effective renal plasma flow (ERPF) at an off-site central laboratory by transferring blood samples from the on-site laboratory. METHODS Blood samples were obtained from 66 patients referred for renal imaging with 99mTc-MAG3. ERPF values were determined using the single blood sample method (BSM) at both on- and off-site laboratorie...
متن کاملEvaluation of Cardiac Mitochondrial Function by a Nuclear Imaging Technique using Technetium-99m-MIBI Uptake Kinetics
Mitochondria play an important role in energy production for the cell. The proper function of a myocardial cell largely depends on the functional capacity of the mitochondria. Therefore it is necessary to establish a novel and reliable method for a non-invasive assessment of mitochondrial function and metabolism in humans. Although originally designed for evaluating myocardial perfusion, 99mTc...
متن کاملUse of technetium-99m-MAG3 for renal scintigraphy after angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibition.
Technetium-99m-mercaptoacetyltriglycine (99mTc-MAG3) was tested in 82 hypertensive patients submitted to renal scintigraphy 1 hr after oral premedication with 50 mg of Captopril. Baseline studies were obtained only for those patients showing abnormal findings in the provocative study. All patients underwent renal arteriography. Sensitivity and specificity for the detection of renal artery steno...
متن کاملUnexpected stomach uptake of technetium-99m-MDP.
Two pediatric cases are described in which the results of each patient's bone scan demonstrated abnormal stomach uptake. There have been a number of reports in the literature describing stomach uptake of bone agents, however, it is an uncommon finding.
متن کاملComparison of technetium-99m MAG3 with iodine-131 hippuran by a simultaneous dual channel technique.
Technetium-99m MAG3, a technetium-labeled analog of hippuran, was compared with [131I] hippuran using a simultaneous dual isotope study in 20 patients. The plasma clearance for MAG3 was lower than that of hippuran, but its plasma concentration was higher, resulting in similar rates of excretion and similar renal time-activity curves. Apart from better statistics with the technetium-labeled agen...
