CORRELATION OF RENOGRAM WITH CYSTATIN-C LEVELS AND CREATININE CLEARANCE IN MEASURING GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE [PDF]
AbstrakRenogram 99mTc-DTPA (diethylenetriamine pentacetic acid) memiliki beberapa kelebihan dalam mengukur laju filtrasi glomerulus (LFG). Cystatin-c digunakan sebagai petanda biologik baru untuk memperkirakan LFG.

Renogram in Children with Nephrotic Syndrome
Fifty children with nephrotic syndrome, aged 3 to 13 years, were studied for renogram patterns. Twenty-one cases had normal renograms; one case with bilateral and one with unilateral renal function. Seven cases showed bilateral renal impairment in both secretion and excretion phases. Impairment of excretion phase was found in 12 cases bilaterally and 8

Clinical Utility of Postoperative Day 1 Technetium-99m Mercaptoacetyltriglycine Scintigraphy for Early Assessment of Graft Function in Living Donor Kidney Transplant Recipients. [PDF]
Background At our institution, 99mTc‐MAG3 renal scintigraphy is routinely performed preoperatively in living kidney donors and on postoperative Day 1 in recipients. Given the interindividual variability in MAG3 clearance, we hypothesized that postoperative MAG3 clearance could serve as an early indicator of renal graft function.

Method of nephroscintigraphic dynamic images analysis [PDF]
We propose a method for automatic processing of dynamic nephroscintigrams based on fitting the renogram curve by an exponential function. The method makes it possible to obtain objective parameters of the kidney condition.
