Abstract
We present a method for estimating Tc-99m-MAG(3) clearance from both a single injection and two blood samples that is valid for both adults and children. It was obtained by fitting a scaled two-compartment mode l (having only two adjustable parameters) to adult and pediatric data from multiple centers.
