Gadolinium residue (mass) in the cortex and medulla of a functioning kidney (a) and a diseased kidney (b) fitted by the three-compartment model of Zhang et al (63). Cortical and medullary residues are considerably lower in diseased kidney (b) than in the functioning kidney (a), but Zhang's model provides good curve fits in both cases.
