title: [Radionuclide studies with a dynamic kidney phantom].
abstract: Altogether 120 studies with a dynamic kidney phantom (DKP) were conducted permitting one to imitate the normal functioning of the kidneys or different pathological states of the organ. The studies were conducted with the help of a gamma-chamber of MV-9100 type using a computer system SEGAMS (Hungary) and a chronoscope RIKh-5M-01. On completion of the experiment the activity-time curves were plotted characterizing the time course of the passage of a radioactive tracer through phantom cylinders that imitate the kidneys. The results obtained have demonstrated DKP potentialities for the imitation of various renal functional states. Studies with a DKP make it possible to select an optimum regimen for research and to assess the quality of performance of nuclear medical diagnostic equipment.
