%X Objectives: Glomerular Filtration Rate (GFR) is an important parameter of kidney function. Many methods are used to measure GFR namely: inulin clearance, double plasma sample method (DPSM), GatesĄŻ method, and equation based method. DPSM has become the gold standard in clinical research. GatesĄŻ method is routinely practiced at National Institute of Nuclear Medicine and Allied Sciences. Chronic kidney disease epidemiology collaboration (CKD-EPI ) equation is encouraged as it is simple and reliable. The aim of the study was assesment of agreement between GatesĄŻ method and CKD-EPI equation with plasma sample method for estimation of GFR
