| Article Title: | Recent advances in the urological application of radionuclides |
| Abstract: | Radionuclide studies provide non-invasive, reliable, and less time-consuming information about the functional status in many urological disorders. Some recent studies on obstructive uropathy, renal vascular hypertension, scarring from pyelonephritis, and other fruitful applications of specific clinical problems are reviewed. Emphasis is also given in the newly embarked areas for tumor imaging using positron emission tracers and labeled specific monoclonal antibodies. |
