Renal Perfusion/Excretion Determination Renogram: A New Tool in the Diagnostic Evaluation of Renovascular Hypertension

Presented herein are initial experiences with the RP/ED renogram, a unique radioisotope differential split function study, which can be performed with a minimum of discomfort to the patient. This test should totally supplant the existing renogram and, with additional experience, may replace the use of split function studies in the evaluation of renovascular hypertension.
