Estimation of Split Renal Function With Tc-99m-DMSA SPECT: Comparison Between 3D Volumetric Assessment and 2D Coronal Projection Imaging

摘要

OBJECTIVE. Split renal function (SRF) can be estimated with Tc-99m-labeled dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) SPECT cortical renal scintigraphy on either 2D projected images or 3D images. The purpose of this study was to determine whether there is a significant difference between SRF values calculated with the 2D method and those calculated with the 3D method.
