Renal function evaluation in hypertensive patients by 99m Tc-DTPA and 99m Tc-EC dynamic renography
Dynamic renography was performed in 56 cases of hypertensive patients and 29 controls using 99m Tc-DTPA or 99m Tc-EC. It was found that GFR of primary hypertension (PH) decreased significantly
but with no difference in the two kidneys
whereas in renovascular hypertension (RH) the GFR was lower than the PH and control group
also the GFR of diseased kidney was lower than contralateral normal side. ERPF between PH and RH was not significantly different
but both of them were lower than that of the control group. It suggested that ERPF and GFR may be some help for the understanding of renal functional state in hypertensive patients and also for evaluating the magnitude of renal injury.
