AJR Am J Roentgenol 187(6):W610-7 (2006) PMID 17114514

Specific quantitative measurements have been recommended to assist in the interpretation of technetium-99m mercaptoacetyltriglycine (MAG3) renal studies. Our objective was to define the sex- and age-specific normal ranges for these recommended parameters.

    DNM sensitivity was more than threefold higher while SR was notably better. Significantly, SR was the same for (99m)Tc and (201)Tl. ER was improved on DNM and allowed good separation of (99m)Tc and (123)I spectral peaks. Count rate remained linear on DNM up to 612 kcps, while S-SPECT showed severe d...
