(99m)Tc-DTPA volume of distribution, half-life and glomerular filtration rate in normal adults.

BACKGROUND AND AIM Assessment of volume of distribution (VD) and half-life (T1/2) values during glomerular filtration rate (GFR) investigations is a useful quality control check. The aim of this study was to derive reference data for VD and T1/2 and also to provide reference data for GFR from studies performed using Tc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Tc-DTPA). METHODS This was a retrospec...

Determination of glomerular filtration rate using technetium-99m-DTPA with differing degrees of renal function.

UNLABELLED Glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is an important index of renal function. Twenty-four-hour creatinine clearance overestimates GFR in patients with poor renal function. Inulin and iothalamate clearances are accepted reference standards for determining GFR but are expensive and laborious. We have previously reported that GFRs obtained by measuring the disappearance of 99mTc-DTPA from u...

Comparison of Tc-99m Ethylenedicysteine (Tc-99m EC) with Tc-99m DPTA in evaluation of renal disease [Persian]

Tc-99m-EC is a new renal radiopharmaceutical introduced as an alternative for Tc-99m MAG3. Twenty-three normal volunteers and patients in different .stages of renal disease were evaluated with Te-99m EC and Tc-99m DTPA. The mean initial uptake of EC was significantly higher as compared to DTPA. There was a high correlation between rectangular and hand-drawn ROls for kidney and background,...

Comparison of glomerular filtration rate measurements with the two-plasma sample technique using Tc-99m DTPA and other methods in donor candidates for renal transplantation.

BACKGROUND/AIM Accurate measurement of glomerular filtration rate (GFR) in the evaluation of renal functions in potential kidney donors is associated with important outcomes for both the donor and recipient. We intended to determine the efficacy of various methods while estimating GFR in potential living kidney donors. MATERIALS AND METHODS Fifty-three potential kidney donors (31 females, 22 ...

Comparison of methods for determination of glomerular filtration rate: Tc-99m-DTPA renography, predicted creatinine clearance method and plasma sample method.

BACKGROUND The gamma camera uptake method with Tc-99m-DTPA is simple and less time consuming for the determination of the glomerular filtration rate (GFR). However, its diagnostic accuracy is debated. Gates' method and predicted creatinine clearance method were compared with plasma clearance method with Tc-99m-DTPA for the measurement of GFR. MATERIALS AND METHODS Tc-99m-DTPA renography was p...
