Popis:	A simple and reliable method of preparing 123I o-iodohippurate (I-123 OIH) is described. The agent was used to evaluate renal function in 329 patients; its use results in significant dose reduction for those with obstruction, hypertension, or transplant. Images from I-123 OIH provide 2.4 times more detectable photons per mCi administered to the patient than images obtained from I-131 OIH. Diagnoses are expected to be more reliable with I-123 OIH due to the decreased random variation of each data point.
