Estimation of renal perfusion based on measurement of Rubidium-82 clearance by PET/CT scanning in healthy subjects
2021-02-07
Abstract excerpt
<title>Abstract</title> <p><bold>Background:</bold> Changes in renal blood flow (RBF) may play a pathophysiological role in hypertension and kidney disease. However, RBF determination in humans has proven difficult. We aimed to confirm the feasibility of RBF estimation based on positron emission tomography/ computed tomography (PET/CT) and rubidium-82 (<sup>82</sup>Rb) using the abdominal aorta as input function...
