  • Title: [The contribution of radio-isotopes to urological investigation (author's transl)].
    Author: Ngeh TS, Barritault L.
    Journal: J Urol (Paris); 1981; 87(9):621-3. PubMed ID: 7334235.
    Abstract:
    The authors, with a wide experience in the radio-isotopic investigation of the urinary system, undertake a general review and describe the principal advantages of the use of radio-isotopes in urology: quantitative study of renal function, dynamic study of renal transit, isotope cystography, gallium scintigraphy, vascular, skeletal, hepatic, cerebral and pulmonary isotope scans. Finally, the authors recall the possible use of radio-immunological measurements for the detection of prostatic acid phosphatase, the measurement of renin, angiotensin I and angiotensin II activity on cases of hypertension and finally the measurement of HCG and alpha-foeto proteins in patients with carcinoma of the testis.
