Measurement of renal function with radionuclides.
For the nuclear physician who wants to measure renal function, the biggest problem may be having to choose among the dozens of methods that have been proposed. An overview will be presented here. The final selection must depend upon the needs of each clinic as well as its technical and financial resources. Except at very low levels of renal function, almost any of these methods can be more reliable than creatinine clearance.
