[Quantitative kidney function scintigraphy (FSG) on separate sides in urogenital tuberculosis]

Depending on degree and size of the changes the function of the tuberculous kidney is disturbed with different strength. With the help of the quantitative function scintigraphy by means of 131 J hippuran (sequence scintigraphy, ROI nephrography and side-separated clearance) 33 patients with urotuberculosis were examined and their course of the disease was observed. The greatest value has the function scintigraphy in progressed renal tuberculosis in the differential therapy (nephrectomy, organ-maintaining operation or conservative therapy) and control of the course.
