Abstract
We evaluated diagnostic accuracy of diuretic renal scan with standardization in 45 childrens(107 hydronephrotic kidneys) with 91 diuretic assessments. Sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 78%, and accuracy was 84% in 49 hydronephrotic kidneys with standardization. Diuretic renal scan without standardization, sensitivity was 100%, specificity was 38%, and accuracy was 57 % in 58 hydronephrotic kidneys. The false-positive results were observed in 25 cases without standardization, and in 8 cases with standardization. In diuretic renal scans without standardization, the causes of false-positive results were 10 early injection of lasix before mixing of radioactivity in pelvocalyceal system, 4 full bladder, 2 markedly dilated pelvocalyceal systems postpyeloplsty, 6 extrarenal pelvis, and 3 immature kidneys of neonates. In diuretic renal scans with standardization the causes of false-positive results were 2 markedly dilated systems postpyeloplsty, 2 extrarenal pelvis, 1 immature kidney of neonate, and 2 severe venal dysfunction, 1 vesicoureteral reflux. In diuretic renal scan without standardization the false-positive results by inadequate study were common, but false-positive results by inadequate study were not found after standardization. The false-positive results by dilated pelvocalyceal systems postpyeloplsty, extrarenal pelvis, and immature kidneys of neonates were not dissolved after standardization. In conclusion, diagnostic accuracy of diuretic renal scan with standardization was useful in children with renal outflow tract obstruction by improving specificity significantly.
