Quantitative Renal Uptake Using TC99m DMSA in Hypertensive &/or Diabetic Patients.

Quantitative Renal Uptake Using TC99m DMSA in Hypertensive &/or Diabetic Patients.

the investigators explore the possible role of DMSA to detect renal affection in diabetic &/or hypertensive patients by detecting difference in counts using Tc 99m DMSA in control & diabetic &/or hypertensive patients.

Inclusion Criteria:

• • Patients with diabetes (type2), weather controlled or not.

  • Patients with essential hypertension.
  • Patients with diabetes & hypertension.
  • Within normal renal function (urea & creatinine).
  • Control cases may be normal individuals (apparently healthy) like donors for renal transplant.

Exclusion Criteria:

• • Patients with abnormal renal function.

  • Patients with diseases known to affect kidney function rather diabetes & hypertension e.g. SLE, heart failure or liver cell failure.
