ABSTRACT

The relationship between differential renal uptake of Tc-99m 2–3 dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and differential renal function was examined in normal and abnormal dogs by correlating Tc-99m DMSA localization with relative renal blood flow and creatinine clearance. There was close correlation of fractional Tc-99m DMSA localization with relative renal function.
