Abstract

Blood samples were taken from 21 subjects at 2 to 4 hours after simultaneous injection of contrast medium (metrizoate) for urography and 51Cr-EDTA. Clearance calculations were performed using the single injection (single slope) technique. The plasma concentrations of 51Cr-EDTA and contrast medium were measured by gamma counting and X-ray fluorescence analysis, respectively. A good correlation was found between the clearance of 51Cr-EDTA and clearance of contrast medium (r=0.94).
