Resumo: |
OBJECTIVE: This paper compares the test results of DMSA renal scintigraphy performed 1, 3 and 6 hours after administration of the radiopharmaceutical in children with clinical suspicion of acute pyelonephritis. MATERIALS E METHODS: DMSA Images were performed 1, 3 and 6 h after tracer injection and evaluated by three nuclear medicine physicians, who rated the kidneys from normal and abnormal, in the three different moments. We used the Criteria for acute pyelonephritis published by The European Association of Nuclear Medicine and the Consensus of normality and its variants, proposed by 30 experts in nuclear nephrology and published in 1999. Moreover, was performed the relative renal function on each patient, for each protocol image, by counting the activity of 99m Tc-DMSA uptake in both kidneys. RESULTS: One hundred sixty nine kidneys from 88 patients were evaluated. There was agreement intra-observer and inter-observer for all comparisons. The prevalence of acute pyelonephritis was 22,7%. There were no statistically significant changes in function calculation on the three proposed protocols. CONCLUSION: There was no statistically significant difference in the images taken at 1, 3 and 6h in the scintigraphic evaluation of acute pyelonephritis in children up to ten years. Also do not change the functional indices in the three moments. |
