{{#lst:Renal scintigraphy|radiology}}
** Static method
** '''99mTc-DMSA'''
** Measures corticol loss
** Can measure relative ratio of renal function between the two kidneys
** Indications
*** Pyelonephritis
*** Renal infarction
*** Acute renal failure
*** Hydronephrosis
* Camera-renography
** Dynamic method
** Images before and after furosemide
*** If furosemide improves excretion the obstruction is anatomical
*** If it doesn’t then it’s a functional problem of the kidney
** '''99mTc-DTPA – for glomerular secretion'''
** '''99mTc-MAG3 – for tubular secretion'''
** Creates a time-activity curve = renogram with 3 phases
*** Phase I – perfusion
*** Phase II – filtration or secretion function
*** Phase III – excretion function
** Indications
*** Obstructive renal disease
*** Hypertension
*** Measuring <abbr>GFR</abbr>
