sup 99m TECHNETIUM-DIMERCAPTO-SUCCINIC ACID RENAL SCAN IN THE EVALUATION OF POTENTIAL LONG-TERM RENAL PARENCHYMAL DAMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH EXTRACORPOREAL SHOCK WAVE LITHOTRIPSY IN CHILDREN

Abstract

The efficacy of ESWL in treating pediatric urolithiasis is confirmed. Renal parenchymal trauma associated with ESWL does not appear to cause long-term lesions identifiable by DMSA renal scan.
