abdominal wall hernias are the most common situations requiring major surgeries. in this study, we report a large incisional hernia, as an incidental finding, in a tc-dtpa scan of a renal transplant recepient. increased flow of activity in dynamic phase and relatively increased and nonuniform tracer accumulation in static phase of the study were observed.

using gate’s technique for gfr measurement with gamma camera, the patient is received 5mci of tc-99m-dtpa. by this amount of radioactivity, good quality renal scan is not possible. this study tries to optimize gate’s technique for gfr measurement during routine renal scan (with 10-15 mci). methods and materials: scanning was performed for 60 seconds from samples of tc-99m with activities of 3, ...

A man with metastatic carcinoma of the colon had a bone scan which revealed urinary retention in the left kidney. Ten months later, a Tc-99m-DTPA renai glomerular study showed the left kidney to have only 8% of total renal function. Fifteen months after that, (he same kidney demonstrated 9% of total function, while the right kidney had evolving obstruction due to his neoplasm. The case sh...

PURPOSE Diuretic (99m)Tc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Tc-DTPA) renal scans may show false-negative or false-positive results in children with ureteropelvic junction obstruction (UPJO). We evaluated whether modified differential renal function (DRF) revised by the renal cross-sectional area on imaging study may be a more valuable predictor than conventional DRF on a renal scan for decidin...

We present a patient with Fanconi syndrome who demonstrated poor renal uptake of 99mTc-DMSA and high urinary concentration of the tracer. A 99mTc-DTPA scan was normal and the creatinine clearance only minimally decreased. These findings suggest that 99mTc-DMSA may be accumulated in the kidney by glomerular filtration and subsequent tubular reabsorption, with the nonabsorbed fraction appearing i...

This study demonstrates the normal technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid ([99mTc]DTPA) renal scan in pregnant patients with transplanted kidneys. Five pregnant renal transplant patients had seven [99mTc]DTPA renal studies to assess allograft perfusion and function. All scans showed the uteroplacental complex. The bladder was always compressed and distorted. The transplanted kidney w...
