Özet

Tc-99m DMSA renal cortical scan is a reference method for determining relative renal function (RRF). Tc-99m MAG-3 is also recommended for the estimation of RRF, particularly in young children. The aims of this study were to compare MAG-3 and DMSA RRF estimations and to assess the reproducibility of these estimations in children with unilateral hydronephrosis.
