The Expectations of Pediatric Urologists from Nuclear Medicine
Journal Title: Nuclear Medicine Seminars - Year 2019, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Nuclear medicine is frequently used by pediatric urologists. Treatment planning of ureterovesical junction obstruction, vesicoureteral reflux, and similar common congenital anomalies can only be done with well-reported nuclear medicine examinations. In this review, the expectations of pediatric urologists from nuclear medicine are explained under the headings of major anomalies.
