YAMASHITA., M., INABA, T., KAWASE, Y., HORII, H., WAKITA, K., FUJII, R. and NAKAHASHI, H. Quantitative Measurement of Renal Function Using Ga-68-EDTA. Tohoku J. exp. Med., 1988, 155 (2), 207-208 - We studied renal function using a positron emission tomography with C15O gas and 68Ga-EDTA in 6 normal subjects (male, 21-77 years old). The blood volume (ml/100g (kidney)) was 19.2±1.8 for the one 21 years old subject and 11.8±2.0 for the rest (65-77 years old). The glomerular filtration rate (ml/min/100g (kidney)) was 57.8±1.1 for the 21 years old subject and 30.4±2.8 for the rest.
