Pancake 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 کاملApplication of 99mTc-DTPA Radiotracer in Persian Cat’s Renal Scintigraphy
Purpose: To evaluate the suitability of Tc-DTPA as a radiotracer in Persian cat's renal scintigraphy. Methods: twelve adult healthy Persian cats were selected. For scintigraphy, the animals were anesthetized and TC-DTPA was injected via the femoral vein as a bolus at a dose of 1.5 mCi. Immediately after intravenous injection of radiotracer, scintigraphic operation was conducted on the renal org...
متن کاملVesicoureteral Reflux Detected with 99mTc-DTPA Renal Scintigraphy during Evaluation of Renal Function
BACKGROUND Radionuclide techniques, as direct radionuclide cystography and (99m)Tc-DMSA scintigraphy, have been used in evaluation of vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) and reflux nephropathy (RN) in children. Dynamic (99m)Tc-DTPA scintigraphy is reserved for evaluation of differential renal function and obstruction in children, where hydronephrosis is detected by ultrasonography (US) pre- or postnata...
متن کامل99mTc-aprotinin scintigraphy in amyloidosis.
UNLABELLED Changes in the amount and distribution of amyloid lesions have been difficult to monitor because they can usually be demonstrated only by evident symptoms or from a biopsy. The recent progress in the treatment of amyloidosis stresses the need for an early diagnosis and the need for noninvasive monitoring during the course of treatment. To validate (99m)Tc-aprotinin scintigraphy, we s...
متن کاملMonitoring of renal function using 99mTc-DMSA and 99mTc-DTPA scintigraphy in patients with spinal cord injury.
AIM The aim of this study was to assess the degree of alterations of renal function by using 99m-technetium dimercaptosuccinic acid ((99m)Tc-DMSA) and 99m-technetium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid ((99m)Tc-DTPA) scintigraphy in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-two consecutive SCI (15 paraplegic and 7 tetraplegic) patients (mean age: 49.1±13.4 years) who had n...
