Pediatrik hastalarda manyetik rezonans ürografi ile intravenöz piyelografinin etkinliğinin karşılaştırılması -Polat G. ve Pirimoğlu B.Genel Tıp Derg 2018;28(2):76-80 76 Öz Amaç: İntravenözpiyelografi(İVP) böbrek fonksiyonlarını ve anatomik özelliklerini gösteren bir yöntemdir. Fakat iyonizan radyasyon içermesi nedeniylepediatrik yaş grubunda kullanılması uygun değildir. Bu nedenle son zamanlarda kullanımı yaygınlaşan manyetik rezonansürografi(MRÜ) ile üriner patolojiler değerlendirilmeye çalışılmaktadır. Bizde çalışmamızda MRÜ'ninüriner sistem dilatasyonlarını göstermekte İVP ile arasındaki farkları incelemeyi amaçladık.
AbstractObjective: Intravenous pyelography (IVP) is a method of showing renal functions and anatomical features. However, it is not appropriate to use it in the pediatric age group because of ionizing radiation. For this reason, we are trying to evaluate urinary pathologies with magnetic resonance urography (MRU), which has become popular in recent years. In our study, we aimed to investigate the differences between MRU and IVU, showing dilution of urinary system.
Materials and Methods:Male and female rats were administered with L-thyroxine intraperitoneally at a dose of 0.2 mg/kg for 21 days to induce hyperthyroidism. Morris water maze (MWM) was used to assess learning and memory performance.
Results:There was no significant difference in the detection of pelvicalyceal dilatation between MRU and IVP (P <0.0001). MRU was found to be effective in evaluating parenchymal pathologies and in determining the underlying pathologies in patients with no nephrogram phase in IVP.
Conclusion:There was no significant difference in the detection of pelvicalyceal dilatation between MRU and IVP (P <0.0001). MRU was found to be effective in evaluating parenchymal pathologies and in determining the underlying pathologies in patients with no nephrogram phase in IVP.
