| Abstract |
|
Renal scintigraphy is a non-invasive, widely available diagnostic tool that provides critical information on genitourinary system function and morphology. Dynamic renal scintigraphy evaluates renal function by imaging renal perfusion, glomerular filtration, or tubular function, and by providing time-activity curves. A notable application is diuretic renal scintigraphy, which distinguishes between obstructive and nonobstructive systems by inducing increased urine flow via diuretic administration. Comprehensive understanding of the preparation, image acquisition, and analytical methodologies associated with dynamic renal scintigraphy is thus essential. Familiarity with and access to dynamic renal scintigraphy is invaluable for diagnosing and managing patients, and ultimately improving clinical outcomes. |
