Impact of prolonged use of NSAID (Diclofenac) on 99mTc-MAG3 and 99mTc-DTPA renography
Chronic diclofenac exposure significantly delays Tmax and T½ for both tracers, with a greater impact observed using 99mTc-DTPA. These findings highlight 99mTc-MAG3 as the preferred radiopharmaceutical for renography in settings involving long-term NSAID administration, ensuring accurate and reliable interpretation and minimizing variability associated with radiopharmaceutical selection.
