[edit] Renal Isotopes

Tc-99m DMSA is superior for defining renal cortical anatomy, while agents such as DTPA and MAG-3 are better for evaluating renal function and urinary tract dynamics. Tc-99m DTPA & Cr-51 EDTA are used for the estimation of GFR; I-123 Hippuran for ERPF; Tc-99m MAG3 for TER

Tc-99m pertechnetate, Tc-99m DTPA, Tc-99m glucoheptonate
