ABSTRACT

The dynamics of hippuran in the kidneys have been studied by rapid sequential scanning performed with a conventional scanner.

This method has proved especially useful in:

1. the interpretation of the causes of anuria in transplanted kidneys,

2. the early recognition of intra-abdominal urinary fistula and

3. the recognition of localized partial ischemia of the kidneys.
