Assessment of renal function in mice with unilateral ureteral obstruction using (99m)Tc-MAG3 dynamic scintigraphy

BACKGROUND: Renal scintigraphy using (99m)Tc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine ((99m)Tc-MAG3) is widely used for the assessment of renal function in humans. However, the application of this method to animal models of renal disease is currently limited, especially in rodents. Here, we have applied (99m)Tc-MAG...
