Assessment of renal transplantation using a gamma camera computer system.
Five hundred eleven isotope studies were performed following renal transplantation in 130 patients, using a standard technique and a gamma camera computer system in a nuclear medicine department situated half a mile away from the renal transplant unit. A comprehensive picture of renal function is obtained from perfusion studies, renography, effective renal plasma flow, I-131-Hippuran uptake, and excretion measurements.
