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...
OBJECTIVE This study aims to determine if normal absolute uptake values of dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) can be predicted accurately over the optimal time for imaging. METHODS Eighty-eight normal kidneys were analyzed from 44 children with a median age of 4 y. The mean time between injection and scan was 171.7 min. The absolute uptake of DMSA in milligrams was calculated for each kidney. R...
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the accuracy of an acute (99m)Tc-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scan in predicting dilating vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) among young children with a febrile urinary tract infection (UTI). METHODS The medical records of children (≤ 2 years of age), presenting with febrile UTI between January 2000 and December 2011, were retrospectively reviewed. RESULTS A total of 523 ch...
Background: Urinary tract infection is a common bacterial infection in children and may lead to irreversible renal damage. TC 99-m Dimercaptosuccinic acid renal scintigraphy is the most sensitive method for diagnosing acute pyelonephritis. We designed a study to evaluate the ability of DMSA scan and ultrasonography to detect renal paranchymal lesion. Materials and Methods: 62 children 1 month t...
Background: Early diagnosis of renal parenchymal involvement in children with acute pyelonephritis (APN) using isotope scan and early treatment may decrease or prevent development of renal parenchymal lesions. We designed this study to assess the diagnostic value of certain biologic parameters in children with first- episode of acute pyelonephritis (APN) documented by 99m Tc-dimercaptosucci...
Abstract Background: In the absence of specific symptomology in children, the early diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis is a challenge, particularly during infancy. This study was performed to evaluate the diagnostic utility of serum procalcitonin levels in children with acute pyelonephritis.. Methods: Serum procalcitonin was measured with a rapid, semi-quantitative immune-chromatographic te...
DMSA (meso-2,3-dimercaptosuccinic acid) adalah suatu senyawa dengan gugus sulfhydryl yang mampu berikatan secara chelation berbagai logam berat. Awalnya dimanfaatkan sebagai antidotum keracunan berat, namun seiring berjalannya ilmu pengetahuan, berhasil ditandai menggunakan Tc-99m Pertechnetate dan dimaanfaatkan luas dalam bidang kedokteran nuklir. scan telah digunakan nefrourologi, terutama un...
Background: Children with vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) are at risk of recurrent pyelonephritis, kidney scars, hypertension, and renal failure. Currently, VUR complications can be diagnosed by different imaging methods such as sonography, intravenous pyelography and dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scan, having certain limitations. Urinary level of ceruloplasmin (Cp) might be an effective non-radio...
urinary tract infections are common in children. the available gold standard method for diagnosis, tc-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid scan is expensive and exposes patients to considerable amount of radiation. this study was performed to compare and assess the efficacy of power doppler ultrasound versus tc-99m dmsa scan for diagnosis of acute pyelonephritis. a quasi experimental study was conducted...
Technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) scan was performed on a 32-year-old woman with 
 abdominal pain. A normal functioning slightly ptotic right kidney seen planar images. There no activity in the left renal region and small fusiform pelvic area. Pelvic computed tomography (CT) axial images revealed pre-vesical abscess pushing bladder posteriorly to side. On obtained after percuta...
