ACE inhibitor

The process of ACE inhibitor renal scintigraphy involves several key steps to ensure accurate results. Patients must fast for four hours and maintain good hydration. ACE inhibitors such as Enaliprat or Lisinopril should be withheld for a week, and Captopril for 48 hours prior to the procedure.
