Regulation of the renal angiotensin II receptor gene in acute unilateral ureteral obstruction [PDF]

, 1994
Regulation of the renal angiotensin II receptor gene in acute unilateral ureteral obstruction. We have shown that acute (24-hr) unilateral ureteral obstruction (UUO) induces the genes encoding for renin, in juxtaglomerular apparatuses and in tubules, for

A Qualitative Review of Clinical Decision‐Making Using [99mTc]Tc‐Mercaptoacetyltriglycine Renal Scintigraphy in Patients With Malignant Ureteral Obstruction

Journal of Medical Radiation Sciences, EarlyView.
This case series evaluated the clinical utility of [99mTc]Tc‐MAG3 renal scintigraphy in managing malignant ureteral obstruction (MUO). Renal scintigraphy‐guided decision‐making allowed safe conservative management in selected patients, particularly those with a non‐functional excretion pattern, and helped avoid unnecessary urinary drainage.
