) with CG formula, MDRD formula, EPI-CKD formula and 24-hour urine creatinine clearance respectively when compared with DTPA renal scan findings. The highest proportion of patients was seen with normal GFR with DTPA renal scan findings as 83 (90.2%) individuals while 24-hour urine creatinine clearance observed these to be 59 (64.1%), CG EPI-CKD formula 44 (47.8%), MDRD formula 39 (42.4%) and 40 (43.5%) with CG formula. Conclusion None of the GFR estimation methods resulted in similar findings. With reference to the DTPA renal scan, 24-hour urine creatinine clearance was the closest GFR estimation followed by CKD-EPI and MDRD equations.
