99mTc-DTPA renal scanning as a confirmatory study in the diagnosis of neonatal adrenal hemorrhage.
1980
99mTc-DTPA renal scanning offers a method for demonstrating adrenal hemorrhage as a cause of flank mass in the neonate and for assessing renal function. The hemorrhagic adrenal appears as a tracer-free area over the flattened and displaced kidney. The method is low in radiation and is not hampered by obscuring bowel contents.
