FIGURE 6.  RAS in 63-y-old man with chronic renal insufficiency (creatinine clearance, 40 mL/min) and subrenal aortic inflammatory aneurysm with right renal hydronephrosis due to ureter compression. (A) On ACE inhibitor renography with 123I-OIH, images obtained at 1, 6, 11, and 16 min (from left to right) after injection show poor function of right kidney, assuming only 10% of total renal function. (B) Time–activity renal curves were identical to baseline (not shown). (C) Coronal 3-dimensional MRA image demonstrates short stenosis on right renal artery (arrow).
