Abstract:
To minimize renal radiation in abdomical radiotherapy, shielding of the kidneys is essential. IVP-simulator is used as an standard method. In this study, we used ۹۹mTc-DMSA to localize and shield the Kidneys and we compared this method with IVP-simulator. The size of the kidneys was proven to be larger as compared with IVP method. The mean of the overlap percentage was ۸۱.۸۸ in right and ۸۲.۸۹ in left kidney. The confidence interval between two methods ranged from ۲۰ to ۸۰ percent. It is concluded that this is a useful method and can be recommended for localization and shielding of the kidneys in patients with abdominal radiotherapy.
