Popis: Radioisotope renography with 13I-hippuran has been undertaken in 14 kidney donors with normal renal function 26–53 months after unilateral nephrectomy. Immediately after renography simultaneous creatinine, 125iothalamate and 131I-hippuran clearances were determined. Ratios calculated within the first 2.5 min of the renogram could not be correlated to clearance values or to the size of the remaining kidney. There was a statistically significant correlation between clearance values and renal size. The range of the ratios calculated was 5–10%, whereas the range of clearance values was 15–30%. 131I-hippuran reached the bladder after a minimum of 2.0 min. There was a correlation between transit time and time to the renogram's maximum.
