Congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract, as well as urinary infections, are very frequent in children. After the clinical and laboratory evaluation, the first imaging procedure to be done is a renal and bladder ultrasound, but afterwards, a main contribution comes from nuclear medicine. Through minimally invasive and sedation-free procedures, nuclear medicine allows the evaluation of the functional anatomy of the urinary tract, and the quantification of renal function and drainage. If pediatric dosage cards provided by scientific societies are used, radiation exposure can also be low. In the pediatric conditions previously mentioned, nuclear medicine is used both for initial diagnosis and follow-up, mostly in cases of suspicion of ureteropelvic or ureterovesical junction syndromes, as well as vesicoureteral reflux or renal scars of febrile infectious episodes. Pediatric nephro-urology constitutes a significant workload of pediatric nuclear medicine departments. The following paragraphs are a revision of the renal radiopharmaceuticals, as well as the nuclear nephro-urology procedures - dynamic and static renal scintigraphy, and direct and indirect radionuclide cystography. A summary of the techniques, main indications, interpretation criteria and pitfalls will be provided. Some future directions for the field are also pointed out, among which the most relevant is the need for nuclear medicine professionals to use standardized protocols and integrate multidisciplinary teams with other pediatric and adult health professionals that manage these life-long pediatric pathologies, which are recognized as an important cause of adult chronic kidney disease.
