  • Title: 99mTc-DTPA renal scanning as a confirmatory study in the diagnosis of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage.
    Author: Habif DV, Berdon WE, Baker DH, Pritzker H, Fawwaz R, Johnson P.
    Journal: Urol Radiol; 1979; 1(2):113-6. PubMed ID: 553369.
    Abstract:
    99mTc-DTPA renal scanning offers a method for demonstrating adrenal hemorrhage as a cause of flank mass in the neonate and for assessing renal function. The hemorrhagic adrenal appears as a tracer-free area over the flattened and displaced kidney. The method is low in radiation and is not hampered by obscuring bowel contents.
