BACKGROUND Renal scintigraphy, generally using 99mTc-DMSA, is the accepted reference standard for detection of renal cortical changes. The timing of the test, i.e., whether an acute 99mTc-DMSA scan, a follow-up only or both scans should be performed, however, remains open to discussion. In our study, a six-month follow- up DMSA scan was performed in all the children diagnosed with a first attac...
AIM The aim of this study was to assess the degree of alterations of renal function by using 99m-technetium dimercaptosuccinic acid ((99m)Tc-DMSA) and 99m-technetium diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid ((99m)Tc-DTPA) scintigraphy in spinal cord injury (SCI) patients. MATERIAL AND METHODS Twenty-two consecutive SCI (15 paraplegic and 7 tetraplegic) patients (mean age: 49.1±13.4 years) who had n...
Introduction: It has been suggested that calculation of differential renal function (DRF) using 99mTc-DMSA may lead to overestimation of the function of an obstructed kidney. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of diuretic administration on the determination of DRF using 99mTc-DMSA scintigraphy in patients with dilated pelvis. Methods: Thirty three patients, aged from 2 month...

Abstract Background: Screening for patients at risk of renal scarring is a challenge in children with acute pyelonephritis (APN). Diuretic Tc-99m mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3) scintigraphy with zero time injection of furosemide (MAG3-F0) was observed to display focal parenchymal disorders. The advantages of MAG3 include: lower radiation dose and short duration of the test. The aim of this st...
BACKGROUND Acute pyelonephritis in children can leave a kidney scar that eventually can lead to hypertension or renal failure. 99mTc-dimercaptosuccinic acid renal scintigraphy (RC DMSA) is a widely accepted technique to assess children with acute pyelonephritis. AIM To evaluate the presence of residual kidney scars detected through RC DMSA, in children with a first episode of acute pyelonephr...
BACKGROUND To evaluate the management and long term renal function with DMSA scintigraphy in pediatric severe traumatic kidney injury (STKI) grade IV (STKI IV) and V (STKI V) at the trauma center of Grenoble Teaching Hospital. METHODS This is a single-center observational retrospective study between 2004 and 2014. All children under the age of 15 managed at the Grenoble teaching Hospital for ...
BACKGROUND/AIM Ureteropelvic junction obstruction and vesicoureteral reflux are the most frequent entities identified on the basis of antenatal hydronephrosis. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence and pattern of abnormal renal scintigraphy findings in postnatal investigation of children with antenatal hydronephrosis. METHODS Twenty-four infants (19 boys and five girls) present...
We present a 71-year-old man who underwent closure of an ileostomy and had a fever seven days post surgery. Both Tc-99m(V)-dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and gallium-67 citrate scans showed increased tracer accumulation in the right lower quadrant of the abdomen. Tc-99m(V)-DMSA scintigraphy can be a rapid alternative tool in the detection of wound infection in patients after ileostomy closure.
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...
