Özet

Background: There are some problematic results in determination of differential renal function (DRF) by means of Tc-99m DMSA renal scintigraphy in hydronephrotic kidneys. In this study the classical method (CM) and unit area methods (UAM) in the estimation of DRF in unilateral hydronephrosis before and after intervention were compared.
