  • Title: Low renal uptake of 99mTc-DMSA in patients with proximal tubular dysfunction.
    Author: van Luÿk WH, Ensing GJ, Piers DA.
    Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1983; 8(9):404-5. PubMed ID: 6313371.
    Abstract:
    In nine patients with different types of proximal tubulopathy and a nearly normal glomerular filtration rate a low uptake of 99mTc-DMSA in kidneys was found. The underlying mechanism seems to be an increased urinary excretion of 99mTc-DMSA. This radiopharmaceutical might be used as a marker of proximal tubular dysfunction.
