Increased patchy renal accumulation of 99mTc-methylene diphosphonate in a patient with severe loin pain after exercise

Nephron. 1987;47(1):29-31. doi: 10.1159/000184452.

Abstract

Radionuclide imaging in a patient who had acute renal failure with severe loin pain and patchy renal vasoconstriction is described. The patient was studied 3h after the intravenous bolus injection of 25 mCi99mTc-methylene diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP). An intense patchy renal concentration of 99mTc-MDP was observed.
