Description
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 two and a half 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
