  • Title: Estimating kidney function during urography. Comparison of contrast medium clearance and simultaneous 51Cr-EDTA clearance.
    Author: Sjöberg S, Hellsten S, Almén T, Golman K, Grönberg T.
    Journal: Acta Radiol; 1987; 28(5):587-92. PubMed ID: 2960353.
    Abstract:
    Blood samples were taken from 21 subjects at 2 to 4 hours after simultaneous injection of contrast medium (metrizoate) for urography and 51Cr-EDTA. Clearance calculations were performed using the single injection (single slope) technique. The plasma concentrations of 51Cr-EDTA and contrast medium were measured by gamma counting and X-ray fluorescence analysis, respectively. A good correlation was found between the clearance of 51Cr-EDTA and clearance of contrast medium (r = 0.94).
