[Indirect pharmaco-angioscintigraphy of the kidneys in patients with cavernous renal tuberculosis].

Radionuclide examination findings of the renal hemodynamics of 70 patients with cavernous tuberculosis of the kidney are presented. Before the indirect radionuclide pharmacoangiography, 58 of these patients received two groups of drugs having different impact on renal vessels. The indirect radionuclide pharmacoangiography method is atraumatic and highly informative, and allows one to evaluate a morphofunctional status of the renal vessel channel in patients with tuberculosis of the kidney for the purpose of treatment tactics assessment and complex therapy efficacy monitoring. The sensitivity and accuracy of the method are 81 and 86%, respectively.
