Book your 99mTc-LLEC DTPA Scan at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, an NABL- and NABH-accredited diagnostic centre that offers advanced Nuclear Medicine, Radiology, and Pathology services. This nuclear medicine study uses Technetium-99m DTPA (99mTc-DTPA) to assess renal function, blood flow, and the urinary drainage system, helping doctors evaluate kidney function and urinary tract abnormalities. Our experienced nuclear medicine specialists use advanced imaging technology and follow appropriate radiation safety protocols for accurate evaluation and report making.
About 99mTc - LLEC DTPA
99mTc-DTPA renal scan is a nuclear medicine test used to evaluate kidney function and flow of urine out of the kidneys through the urinary tract. A dye is injected into a vein to track the dye flow through the kidneys with a gamma camera. Multiple imaging modalities are utilized at Molecular Diagnostics and Therapy, which give functional information on kidneys and urinary drainage.
What is a 99mTc - LLEC DTPA Scan?
In a 99mTc-DTPA Scan, a tiny amount of 99mTc-DTPA tracer is injected into a vein. The tracer enters the blood, and a series of images taken with the gamma camera reveal how it moves through the kidneys. The scan assists physicians in assessing renal perfusion, filtration, relative renal function, and urinary drainage.
Common Reasons for 99mTc - LLEC DTPA
Evaluation of kidney function
Suspected urinary obstruction
Assessment of renal blood flow
Evaluation of individual kidney function
Suspected hydronephrosis
Follow-up of urinary tract abnormalities
Assessment before or after selected renal procedures
Conditions Evaluated
Renal Function
Helps assess the functional performance of the kidneys and compare the contribution of each kidney.
Urinary Obstruction
Helps evaluate whether urine flow from the kidney is obstructed or delayed.
Hydronephrosis
Provides functional information in patients with enlargement of the kidney due to impaired urinary drainage.
Renal Perfusion
Assesses blood flow to the kidneys and tracer uptake during the study.
Differential Kidney Function
Helps determine the relative contribution of the right and left kidneys to overall renal function.
Who Should Consider This Scan?
Your doctor recommends a 99mTc-DTPA Renal Scan if you:
Have suspected kidney or urinary obstruction
Have abnormal kidney function
Have hydronephrosis
Need assessment of individual kidney function
Have a history of urinary tract abnormalities
Require functional evaluation of the kidneys

Test information: Fasting NOT needed
Reporting: Within 24 hours*
Fasting is usually not required for the 99mTc-LLEC DTPA Renal Scan.
Drink adequate water before the scan unless your doctor advises otherwise.
Inform the nuclear medicine team if you have any kidney disease, urinary obstruction, or other urinary tract condition.
Tell the doctor about all medicines and ongoing treatments you are taking.
Do not stop or change any prescribed medicine unless advised by your doctor.
Inform the team if you are pregnant, planning pregnancy, or breastfeeding.
Bring previous kidney function tests, ultrasound, CT, MRI, renal scan, or other relevant reports if available.
Follow any specific preparation instructions provided by your doctor or nuclear medicine team.
99mTc-LLEC DTPA Renal Scan के लिए आमतौर पर खाली पेट रहना आवश्यक नहीं होता।
Scan से पहले पर्याप्त मात्रा में पानी पिएं, जब तक कि डॉक्टर ने अलग निर्देश न दिया हो।
यदि आपको Kidney Disease, Urinary Obstruction या Urinary Tract से संबंधित कोई समस्या है, तो न्यूक्लियर मेडिसिन टीम को बताएं।
आप जो भी दवाइयां या उपचार ले रहे हैं, उनके बारे में डॉक्टर को जानकारी दें।
डॉक्टर की सलाह के बिना कोई भी निर्धारित दवा बंद न करें और उसकी खुराक में बदलाव न करें।
यदि आप गर्भवती हैं, गर्भधारण की योजना बना रही हैं या स्तनपान करा रही हैं, तो टीम को पहले बताएं।
उपलब्ध होने पर पिछली Kidney Function Tests, Ultrasound, CT, MRI, Renal Scan या अन्य संबंधित Medical Reports साथ लेकर आएं।
डॉक्टर या न्यूक्लियर मेडिसिन टीम द्वारा दिए गए सभी विशेष निर्देशों का पालन करें।
The patient is registered, and the scan details, medical history, and preparation requirements are verified.
A trained nuclear medicine professional administers a small amount of 99mTc-DTPA radiotracer through a vein.
The tracer travels through the bloodstream to the kidneys and is filtered by the kidneys.
A gamma camera captures sequential images to monitor renal blood flow, tracer uptake, filtration, and urinary drainage.
The images help assess the function of the right and left kidneys and their relative contribution to overall renal function.
The study also helps evaluate whether urine drainage from the kidneys is normal, delayed, or obstructed.
Additional images or a diuretic may be used when required according to the prescribed renal scan protocol.
Relevant clinical history and previous kidney or urinary tract investigations may be considered during interpretation.
Appropriate radiation safety and quality-control procedures are followed throughout the examination.
The study is reviewed and interpreted by the nuclear medicine team.
The procedure is generally well tolerated and minimally invasive.
