Evaluation of RARE-MR Urography in the Assessment of Ureterohydronephrosis

Abstract

The RMU technique may be considered in the following circumstances: contraindications to IVU (allergy to contrast medium, severe renal failure), impairment of renal excretion, and failure to locate the level of obstruction by US. The absence of ionizing radiations favors the promotion of this procedure to study ureterohydronephrosis during pregnancy.
