Abstract:
Objective To investigate the feasibility whether clearance of iohexol can be a reliable, sensitive and safe method for the determination of GFR. Methods The GFR of 19 patients with different renal functions were examined using clearance of 99m Tc-DTPA and clearance of iohexol. Then the correlation of them was analyzed. Serum and urinary iohexol was determined by X-ray fluorescence analysis. Results, These two methods were significantly correlated (r = 0. 98). Conclusion Clearance of iohexol is a safe, comfident, no-radioactivity method for the clinical practice of GFR determination.
