Inter- and intraobserver variability of (99m)Tc-DMSA renal scintigraphy: impact of oblique views.
UNLABELLED (99m)Tc-Dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scintigraphy is a frequently used diagnostic test to assess the presence and severity of cortical damage. The aim of this study is to investigate the variability in the interpretation of (99m)Tc-DMSA scans, evaluate the usefulness of oblique images, and assess their impact on scan interpretation. METHODS Two experienced nuclear medicine physic...
متن کاملPancake kidney: An unusual type of renal fusion anomaly found in 99mTc-DMSA renal scintigraphy
A 2.5-year-old boy with a history of the previous incidental finding of an ectopic kidney in ultrasonography was referred to our nuclear medicine center for 99mTc-DMSA renal scintigraphy. The scan showed an unusual type of ectopic fused kidneys on the right side of the lower abdomen. In this anomaly, kidneys were fused completely across the medial portion of both upper and lower pole...
متن کاملAssessment of the maximum uptake time of 99mTc-DMSA in renal scintigraphy in rat
Introduction:The optimal imaging time of a radionuclide scintigraphy is the time at which the organ of interest has the maximum uptake of the injected radionuclide. This study was performed to investigate the maximum uptake time of 99mTc-DMSA in rat renal scan. Methods: Renal scintigraphy was performed with 3 mCi of 99mTc-DMSA. Planar ima...

Introduction: The optimal imaging time of a radionuclide scintigraphy is the time at which the organ of interest has the maximum uptake of the injected radionuclide. This study was performed to investigate the maximum uptake time of 99mTc-DMSA in rat renal scan. Methods: Renal scintigraphy was performed with 3 mCi of 99mTc-DMSA. Planar images were acquired every 20 minutes for 8 hours post-inje...
متن کاملUnilateral renal agenesis revealed by hydronephrosis of contralateral kidney and explored by 99mTc-DMSA and 99mTc-DTPA scintigraphy
Renal scintigraphy is a physio-functional exploration permitting the exploration and assertion of unilateral renal agenesis. We report the case of a patient followed for a right hydronephrosis having revealed an agenesis of the contralateral kidney confirmed by 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy. Also 99mTc-DTPA scintigraphy allowed the evaluation of the permeability of the urinary tract of the single rig...
