Comparison of tomographic kidney volumes measured by semiautomatic segmentation method with scintigraphic split renal function in predicting posttransplant kidney functions
Abstract:Introduction:In this study, it was aimed to compare scintigraphic split renal function (SRF) and computed tomographic (CT) kidney volumes by semiautomatic segmentation method in predicting graft functions after kidney transplantation.Methods: One hundred and twelve patients (77 males, 35 females) who had a living-donor kidney transplant between 2015 and 2017 in our centre were included in the study. While SRF was calculated with technetium-99mdiethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid ( 99m Tc-DTPA) scintigraphy, CT a… Show more
