Single Kidney GFR Measured using 3D MR Renography and a Multicompartmental Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Synopsis A multicompartmental tracer kinetic model permits analysis of 3D MR renography data in terms of physiologic parameters such as glomerular filtration rate. Validation studies were performed in nine subjects, in whom single kidney GFR measurements were measured using radionuclide clearance methods. Agreement between model-fit values of SKGFR and reference values was high (r=0.77). Other physiologic parameters from the model remain to be validated.

Renal function measurements from MR renography and a simplified multicompartmental model.
The purpose of this study was to determine the accuracy and sources of error in estimating single-kidney glomerular filtration rate (GFR) derived from low-dose gadolinium-enhanced T1-weighted MR renography. To analyze imaging data, MR signal intensity curves were converted to concentration vs. time curves, and a three-compartment, six-parameter model of the vascular-nephron system was used to a...

متن کاملEstimates of glomerular filtration rate from MR renography and tracer kinetic models.
PURPOSE To compare six methods for calculating the single-kidney glomerular filtration rate (GFR) from T(1)-weighted magnetic resonance (MR) renography (MRR) against reference radionuclide measurements. MATERIALS AND METHODS In 10 patients, GFR was determined using six published methods: the Baumann-Rudin model (BR), the Patlak-Rutland method (PR), the two-compartment model without bolus disp...
متن کاملDynamic three-dimensional MR renography for the measurement of single kidney function: initial experience.
A three-dimensional magnetic resonance (MR) renographic method to measure single kidney glomerular filtration rate (GFR) and split renal function was developed that is based on renal signal intensity measurements during 2-3 minutes after intravenous injection of a low dose (2 mL or 0.01 mmol/kg) of gadopentetate dimeglumine. In nine subjects, single kidney MR GFR indices correlated well with te...
