Abstract Transitional nephrology seriously affects the manner in which radiological investigations and other forms of imaging are undertaken in the neonate. When this is complicated by acute renal failure then caution must be exerted in taking care of the neonate. The use of ultrasound and micturating cystourethrography are well described and form the baseline for all imaging of the renal tract. The physiological handling of TC99m DTPA and the contrasts used for IVU are described as well as the normal appearances of these techniques in the neonate. TC99m DMSA is also included, as are other modalities of imaging.
