A member asked:
In a bone scan, what would cause mild increased radiotracer fluid in upper right pole of kidney?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See answer: The kidneys and bladder are normally visualized with a routine bone scan. Decrease visualization and activity generally reflects decreased renal function and an increase in activity commonly represents either obstruction or delayed excretion. You should discuss with the doctor who ordered the test whether he feels finding has any clinical significance. Most likely not?
