Infection
i. DMSA/GH most sensitive
pyelonephritis
ii. Acute Pyelo: Decreased uptake focal or
diffuse
iii. Chronic Pyelo: scarring results in
contour abnormalities with foci of low
uptake
iv. Ga-67 or In-111 WBC - detect infection
g. Ureteral Reflux
i. Most sensitive over any other method
ii. Slowly fill bladder and report volume
when reflux is seen
TESTICULAR IMAGING
a. Overtaken by US
b. Very good for detection of torsion
i. Central hypovascular defect
ii. Delayed Images: hyper vascular rim
around torsed testi indicated loss of
viability
1. Rim also seen in abscess/
hematoma
c. Epidimyitis and epidisymoorchitis increase
flow
PROSTAT CANCER IMAGING
a. Treatment depends on if pt has local disease or
mets
b. In-111 capromab pendetide (MBq)
