The F + 0 protocol for diuretic renography results in fewer interrupted studies due to voiding than the F - 15 protocol.

Abstract

The F + 0 renal diuretic protocol is associated with a significantly lower rate of disruption because of voiding than the F-15 protocol, likely due to the shorter period between diuretic administration and study termination, which results in less bladder distention and discomfort. On the basis of these data, the F + 0 protocol appears to be a more tolerable procedure.
