Q. 1 of 2. renogran, left kidney. parenchymal tracer uptake is reduced with negligible wash out. what does it mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
If I understand the : Question correctly, the left kidney renogram shows decreased uptake of tracer, which means decreased kidney function. The negligible wash out means little urine production, or possibly a blockage of the upper ureter. Please discuss with your doctor, as this appearance needs to be correlated with your medical condition and the reason your doctor ordered the test.
