Radiopertechnetate renography with the gamma ray scintillation camera.

Radiopertechnetate renography merits consideration as another intravenous screening procedure for renovascular hypertension. Thus far in our experience it has yielded fewer falsely negative results than the radiohippurate renogram, and it takes less than one minute to complete. Applications of this method to the assessment of renal perfusion in other renal afflictions are described. The examination requires a stationary imaging device interfaced with a storage device and a data processor. It has the advantage of providing a comparison of renal transit of the test agent with its transit through the systemic circulation, e.g. the aorta.

Detection of postoperative bronchopleural fistulas by radionuclide fog inhalation.

Postoperative bronchopleural fistulas may be demonstrated quickly and safely by inhalation of nebulized (99m)Tc-albumin, or other similar radiopharmaceuticals. Posterior scintiphotographs of the distribution of the inhaled radioactive material are obtained with the gammaray scintillation camera while the patient is in the upright and lateral decubitus positions. The observation of radioactive material in the pleural cavity indicates an abnormal communication.The radiation-absorbed doses for lung and total body are well within acceptable limits when a (99m)Tc tag is used. About 15 minutes are required to complete this relatively safe diagnostic test.

Serial radiohippurate renal scintiphotography.

The results of serial radiohippurate scintiphotography in 222 patients are analyzed. The findings in various renal diseases are discussed and compared with those obtained from the excretory urogram, BUN, serum creatinine and creatinine clearance.
