Comparison of aspirin renogram and captopril renogram in the diagnosis of renovascular hypertension
Renal artery stenosis (RAS) is the most common cause of secondary hypertension. Preliminary data indicate that aspirin renography with hippurate may be more sensitive for detection RAS. In this study 20 patients with known or suspected RAS underwent aspirin renography (20 mg/kg orally 1 hour before injection of radiotracer) and captopril renography (50 mg orally) with 99mTc-DTPA. Renal an...
متن کاملStudies of an aspect of renal function with the aid of dynamic CT and renogram.
Dynamic CT scans were conducted on 94 persons who had been randomly selected among the patients and the volunteers. The test results were used to obtain the time-density curve. A part of the subjects (20 cases) underwent the renogram examination for the comparative studies. The cortico-aortic (CA) ratio derived from the time-density curve demonstrated good correlation between the dynamic CT and...
متن کاملDetermining an accurate method to estimate GFR in renal transplant recipients with stable serum creatinine levels
Introduction:Detecting renal allograft dysfunction early will allow timely diagnosis and treatment. There is no objective recommendation by national kidney societies for glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) estimation in post-transplant setting. 99mTc-DTPA Technetium-99m Diethylene triamine penta acetic acid) renogram can identify early renal dysfunction much before ser...
متن کاملNeutrophil Gelatinase-Associated Lipocalin: A New Marker of Renal Function in C-Related End Stage Liver Disease
Background/Aims. Renal impairment is a common complication of cirrhosis. Serum creatinine is less sensitive in these patients. Measurement of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is the gold standard but time consuming. The aim is to validate plasma NGAL (pNGAL) and urinary NGAL (uNGAL) as markers of renal function in patients with HCV related cirrhosis. Patient and Methods. One hundred HCV rel...
متن کاملAssessment of deconvolution technique for diagnosis of hydronephrosis in infants (under 6 months) [persian]
Introduction: Hydronephrosis is one of the major causes of referring infants for nuclear medicine investigation. Renal dynamic study is the most reliable investigation for such children. However direct evaluation of renogram leads to generation of parameters that have no physiological interpretation. The configuration of renogram is very much dependent upon the rate at which radiopharmace...
