title: Renography using the gamma camera and the intertechnique cinescintigraphy system. A review of the current applications.
abstract: The application and use of radio-isotopes in nephrology have been neglected by clinicians. The indications and techniques used in the renogram and renal scan in the light of our experience over 2 1/2 years are presented. Although these methods are finding ever-increasing applications, the main uses at this stage are the investigation of possible renovascular hypertension, acute obstructive renal failure and postrenal transplant complications.
