[Early experience with repeated determinations of 131-I-hipuran clearance-equivalent during pregnancy ]

Serial observations of ureteric and renal function during pregnancy were carried out by using isotope clearances; renal scintigraphy was performed for the first examination and isotope nephrography subsequently. The results of both types of examination are tabulated. It is shown that these procedures provide the necessary information on renal and ureteric function, given the indications which we have listed. The information concerns both kidneys or can be confined to a single kidney.
