  • Title: [Comparative clinical x-ray, radioisotope nephrographic and ultrasonic studies of chronic pyelonephritis patients].
    Author: Gruev I, Robeva R, Mlŭchkov Kh, Boiadzhieva Z, Neshev Kh.
    Journal: Vutr Boles; 1985; 24(3):39-47. PubMed ID: 3895744.
    Abstract:
    The authors compare the incidence of the changes established by X-ray, radioisotope-nephrographic and ultrasound studies on 115 patients with chronic pyelonephritis. Most frequent and most characteristic are the changes with venous urography. Though not specific, the changes in the isotope-nephrogram and ultrasound contribute to the establishment of functional and structural disturbances in chronic pyelonephritis. They have no contraindications for application, hence they are of high value in the presence of chronic renal insufficiency, where venous urographic is not effective. The ultrasound study has indisputable advantages in establishing the X-ray negative calculi, renal cysts and a functioning kidney.
