3 Fig. 2 Renogram before (left) and after (right) captopril administration in same patient. The right renal scan (upper tracing) demonstrates minimum change necessary to be termed captopril-induced change. This patient had captopril-induced change in this renogram. Left kidney had abnormal baseline scan and was not revascularized in this patient. ROI, Regions of interest.
