Title: Superiority of tc-99m MAG3 to tc-99m DTPA in treating a patient with mild renal artery stenosis. Author: Kiratli PO, Caner B, Altun B, Cekirge S. Journal: Ann Nucl Med; 2001 Feb; 15(1):45-8. PubMed ID: 11355781. Abstract: A 22-year-old female patient with severe hypertension underwent both Technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetate and Technetium-99m mercaptoacetyltriglycine basal and captopril renal scintigraphy. While no significant change was seen with Tc-99m DTPA, there was left sided parenchymal retention of captopril Tc-99m MAG3 suggesting renal artery stenosis which was confirmed by angiography.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
