Angiotensin antagonists as diagnostic and pharmacologic tools
Abstract
Angiotensin antagonists have become useful tools in studying pharmacologic and pathophysiologic roles of the renin-angiotensin axis. Several of these uses are described herein. Their value as t-ols in the diagnosis of renal artery stenosis is yet to be determined.
