Radionuclide evaluation of renal transplants
Abstract
In this review article, the following topics are treated: the radiopharmaceuticals 99mTc-diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (DTPA), 131I-orthoiodohippurate (OIH), 99mTc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3), 67Ga-citrate, radioiodinated fibrinogen, 99mTc-sulfur colloid, 111In-labelled white cells and platelets; gamma camera methods based on images, on first pass and on tubular transit; blood clearance methods; and the diagnosis of surgical complications, acute rejection (AR), acute tubular necrosis (ATN), chronic rejection (CR), and cyclosporine-A (CYA) toxicity.
