Abstract

Direct radionuclide cystography is currently a popular method for evaluation of vesicoureteral reflux, despite its pitfalls and drawbacks in producing false-positive results. In this article, we present a case with 2 sources of false-positive reflux on a direct radionuclide cystography scan.

Keywords: artifact; direct radionuclide cystography; false positive reflux.
