Low renal uptake of 99mTc-DMSA in patients with proximal tubular dysfunction
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine
|January 1, 1983
Abstract:
In nine patients with different types of proximal tubulopathy and a nearly normal glomerular filtration rate a low uptake of 99mTc-DMSA in kidneys was found. The underlying mechanism seems to be an increased urinary excretion of 99mTc-DMSA. This radiopharmaceutical might be used as a marker of proximal tubular dysfunction.
