Widespread antenatal screening has resulted in increased detection of anomalies of the
kidneys and urinary tract. The present guidelines update the recommendations published in …

Controversy exists regarding the type and/or sequence of imaging studies needed during
the first febrile urinary tract infection (UTI) in young children. Several investigators have …

Technetium-99m dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) study has been advocated as a method
for the assessment of renal sequelae after acute febrile urinary tract infection (UTI) …

OBJECTIVE To evaluate and define the risk factors predictive of chronic renal failure (CRF)
in children with severe bilateral primary vesico‐ureteric reflux (VUR), observed within the …

Objective This study aimed to examine the ability of acute 99m Tc DMSA scan for predicting
dilating (grades III-V) vesicoureteral reflux (VUR) after a first febrile urinary tract infection in …

PURPOSE: Limited studies suggest a relationship between scarring on renal scan and
failure to resolve vesicoureteral reflux. We evaluated the impact of abnormal renal scans on …

Purpose The association of vesicoureteral reflux, febrile urinary tract infections and renal
parenchymal damage is well recognized. We determined the prevalence and predictors of …

Purpose: The association of vesicoureteral reflux, urinary tract infection and renal scarring is
well recognized. We evaluated the incidence of renal parenchymal scarring in a large series …

This study was undertaken to determine the predisposing factors for renal scarring in
children with urinary tract infection. In this prospective cohort study, 176 children with …

Purpose: We previously developed a computational model to predict vesicoureteral reflux
resolution 1 and 2 years after diagnosis. Previous studies suggest that an abnormal renal …
