  • Title: [Kidney function study by radioisotope renography in lymphogranulomatosis patients subjected to radiation treatment].
    Author: Kholin VV, Volkov AA, Kovryzhkina TA.
    Journal: Vopr Onkol; 1981; 27(6):13-7. PubMed ID: 7269412.
    Abstract:
    An analysis of the results of renography in 68 patients with lymphogranulomatosis is presented. In 57 patients, a radionuclide investigation of renal function was carried out after irradiation of the spleen, paraaortic and iliac lymph nodes. Renograms were evaluated both qualitatively and quantitatively. The investigation established an impaired renal function in 18% of patients examined prior to radiation therapy. According to radionuclide renography, the excretory function of the tubular renal apparatus remains quite satisfactory after partial irradiation of kidneys in a dose of 38-40 Gy.
