About this study

Official title: Comparison of Acetoacetate and Acetate Kidney Uptake in Patients With Chronic Kidney Failure Measured by Positron Emission Tomography : the RENO-TEP Project

The objective of this study is to nake a comparison between 11c-acetate and 11c-acetoacetate kidney uptake in chronic kidney failure patients.

Read the detailed description

Chronic kidney failure patients will be ask to perform two positron emission tomography scan during the same day. One, with a 11C-Acetate Tracer and the other with 11C-Acetoacetate. The results will allow to determine the difference between the two tracers and will ultimately be compared with precedent results of healthy controls.
