Abstract Simultaneous measurements of the clearance rates of technetium 99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (99mTc-DTPA) and chronium 51 ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (51Cr-EDTA) were performed in 30 patients with a range of renal function (glomerular filtration rates between 9 and 120 ml/min). Using multiple blood samples, the two clearance values correlated well (r=0.991, standard error 3.9 ml/min), but DTPA clearance was systematically higher by 7.6%. For each radiopharmaceutical, an equation was derived to correct clearance values obtained using only plasma samples taken at 2 and 4 h for the systematic error inherent in this technique compared with analysis of the complete plasma concentration-time curve. The root mean square error remaining after application of these equations was 1.9 ml/min for both the EDTA and DTPA data. The corresponding errors obtained using the equation derived by Brochner-Mortensen for EDTA plasma clearance were 2.2 ml/min and 1.9 ml/min, respectively, these values were not significantly different from those obtained using the equations derived in this study.
