  • Title: Spontaneous perforation of the ureter diagnosed on technetium 99m DTPA excretory urography.
    Author: Barasch E, Kashdan B, Rathore A.
    Journal: Urol Radiol; 1988; 10(2):107-9. PubMed ID: 3055629.
    Abstract:
    A case of nontraumatic rupture of the ureter secondary to a nonopaque calculus is presented. Because of the inherent high image contrast caused by the leak of technetium 99m-DTPA-labeled urine, the technetium 99m-DTPA excretory urogram is seen as an alternative to the intravenous urogram or contrast-enhanced computed tomography in selected cases of suspected ureteral rupture.
