Abstract 162 normal Chinese men and women underwent a 99mTc MAG3 renal study.
Seventy-two males and 90 females were evaluated in 5 age groups: group 1, 61–80 years; …

The aim of the present study is to evaluate the intra-and inter-observer agreement in
assessing the renal function by means of 99mTc-MAG3 diuretic renography. One hundred …

Abstract Rationale and Objectives: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of
hydration status upon renogram patterns and renal physiological parameters and clarify the …

OBJECTIVE. Specific quantitative measurements have been recommended to assist in the
interpretation of technetium-99m mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3) renal studies. Our …

13). The only differences for this study were:(a) simultaneous administration of 150 or 300
nC\of [n'I] OIH and 5 or 10 mCi of [" mTc] MAG3 with dual-channel acquisition and counting …

Methods After giving a 7.4 MBq 131I-OIH and 90-110 MBq 99mTc-EC or 99mTc-MAG3
bolus, a constant infusion (1MBq/ml 99mTc-agent and 0.07 MBq/m 131I-OIH was started …

OBJECTIVE. The 24-hour creatinine clearance is the standard clinical technique for
measuring kidney function; however, this measurement is cumbersome and inconvenient for …

To develop a camera-based method for evaluating renal function with 99mTc-
mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3), we examined the relationship between various renogram …

OBJECTIVES: To address the fact that a decrease in the relative renal uptake of 99mTc-
mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3) on serial MAG3 scans may indicate a loss of function and …
