  • Title: The qualitative I-131 Hippuran renogram. A potential problem.
    Author: Taylor A, Kipper MS.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1983 Apr; 8(4):149-54. PubMed ID: 6851361.
    Abstract:
    The I-131 Hippuran renogram time activity curve is usually generated by assigning computer assisted regions of interest over each kidney. Qualitative whole kidney renogram curves can be misleading when there is a nonobstructed but dilated collecting system or asymmetrical excretion of the tracer from the renal collecting system. This problem can be minimized by generating an additional renogram curve from a region of interest assigned over each renal cortex.
