Renal clearance estimated by rubidium‐82 positron emission tomography/computed tomography and technetium‐99m‐mercaptoacetyltriglycine clearance infusion technique
The correlation between <sup>82</sup>Rb clearance and [<sup>99m</sup>Tc]Tc-MAG3 clearance may indicate that PET/CT determined <sup>82</sup>Rb clearance can act as an estimator of renal perfusion. The [<sup>99m</sup>Tc]Tc-MAG3-to-<sup>82</sup>Rb clearance ratios suggest that the extraction fraction of <sup>82</sup>Rb is higher than that of [<sup>99m</sup>Tc]Tc-MAG3, further suggesting <sup>82</sup>Rb clearance as an estimator of flow. However, further studies are warranted to validate use of <sup>82</sup>Rb PET/CT for flow estimation.
