[18F]PSMA-1007 PET is comparable to [99mTc]Tc-DMSA SPECT for renal cortical imaging [PDF]

European Journal of Hybrid Imaging, 2023
Background Scintigraphy using technetium-99m labelled dimercaptosuccinic acid ([99mTc]Tc-DMSA), taken up in the proximal tubules, is the standard in functional imaging of the renal cortex.

Determining Split Renal Function in Children With Ureteropelvic Junction Stenosis: Technetium-99m Mercaptoacetyltriglycine (Tc-99m MAG-3) or Technetium-99m Dimercaptosuccinic Acid (Tc-99m DMSA)? [PDF]

Cureus
Background Ureteropelvic junction stenosis (UPJS) is the most common cause of clinically significant antenatal hydronephrosis. We compared separate renal function results obtained using technetium-99m-mercaptoacetyltriglycine (Tc-99m MAG-3) and technetium-99m-dimercaptosuccinic acid (Tc-99m DMSA) in pediatric patients with UPJS to evaluate the adequacy

Tc-99m DMSA Radiomics in CKD: Phenotype-Specific Cortical Signatures and a Morphological Predictor of Renal Function Decline [PDF]

Diagnostics
Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the ability of radiomic features obtained from technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (Tc-99m DMSA) planar images to distinguish renal cortical uptake patterns among patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD). We also
