Abstract

Purpose: Split renal function (SRF) can be measured by using several methods in Tc-99m-DMSA scintigraphy. Geometric mean (GM) based methods derived from planar images(2D) have been used for several years, besides; 3D-methods were also reported as an option for assessment of SRF. The purpose of this study to compare 2D and 3D methods for calculation of SRF in pediatric and adult patients.
