The results of the examination of 62 patients who had undergone skeletal scintigraphy with 18-F and a urologic examination, were evaluated to determine whether the 18-F incorporation in the kidneys might indicate the presence of renal disease. Patients with and without renal disease demonstrated a similar 18-F incorporation in the kidneys. Our data indicate that a side different 18-F renal activity is without clinical significance.
