Patient factors such as age and glomerular filtration rate (GFR), have been implicated as causes for poor reproducibility of differential renal function (DRF) estimates on 99mTc-mercaptoacetyltriglycine (99mTc-MAG3) renography. This study aims to investigate factors associated with the reproducibility of DRF measurements.
