TABLE 4.

Eighteen renogram variables (4 clinical and 14 pharmacokinetic variables)

Index Variable Description
1 Age Range: 18 to 87 years
2-4 Expert’s Score (from 3 experts) Ranges from −1.0 to 1.0 with higher scores indicating higher likelihood of obstruction
5 Cortical AUC-d1 Area under the first derivative of cortical renogram
6 BL AUC-d1 Area under the first derivative of BL renogram
7 Cortical mv Minimum velocity (mv) of the cortical renogram
8 BL mv Minimum velocity (mv) of BL renogram
9 Cortical tminv Time to minimum velocity (tminv) of cortical renogram
10 BL tminv Time to minimum velocity (tminv) BL renogram
11 Cortical tmax Time to maximum (tmax) of cortical renogram
12 BL tmax Time to maximum (tmax) of BL renogram
13 PF AUC Area under the PF renogram
14 Pelvis AUC Area under the renogram of the pelvis region
15 PF max Maximum (max) of the PF renogram
16 Pelvis max Maximum (max) of the pelvis renogram
17 lastPF/maxBL Ratio of PF renogram at last time point to BL max
18 flrstPF/maxBL Ratio of PF renogram at first time point to BL max

Abbreviations: BL, Baseline; PF, post-furosemide.
