Quantitative evaluation of renal excretion on the dynamic DTPA renal scan.

abstract：PURPOSE:Residual liver uptake at 15 minutes (RLU15), a new index for predicting residual liver function after excision of hepatocellular carcinoma, was evaluated using dynamic liver images and SPECT by Tc-99m DTPA galactosyl human serum albumin. MATERIALS AND METHODS:In 13 cases of hepatectomy, RLU15 was compared with...
