Particle-size and radiochemical purity evaluations of filtered 99mTc-sulfur colloid prepared with different heating times.
UNLABELLED Sentinel node lymphoscintigraphy using colloidal particles has become common practice at many institutions. The ideal particle size for colloids such as filtered (99m)Tc-sulfur colloid ((99m)Tc-FSC) in sentinel node studies is 15-100 nm. It is reported that the use of a reduced heating time during the reconstitution process results in an increased number of smaller particles (<30 nm)...
متن کاملInfluence of Storage Temperature on Radiochemical Purity of 99mTc-Radiopharmaceuticals.
The influence of effective room temperature on the radiochemical purity of 99mTc-radiopharmaceuticals was reported. This study was born from the observation that in the isolators used for the preparation of the 99mTc-radiopharmaceuticals the temperatures can be higher than those reported in the commercial illustrative leaflets of the kits. This is due, in particular, to the small size of the wo...
متن کاملMassive hepatomegaly in 99mTc-octreotide scintigraphy: The value of 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan
99mTc-octreotide scintigraphy, performed during the following up a 58-year old man with neuroendocrine tumor demonstrated massive hepatomegaly demonstrating multiple areas of increased and decreased uptake. Due to severe hepatomegaly concurrence of any other abdominal soft tissue lesions could not be excluded. A 99mTc-sulfur colloid scan was done and thoroughly compared wi...
متن کاملDetection of intracranial bleeding by 99mTc sulfur colloid scintigraphy.
In her article in the May/June 1984 issue of AJNR, Dr. LeMay [1] provides a comprehensive review of the computed tomographic (CT), pneumoencephalographic , and radiographic changes of the brain and skull as seen in the aging population. She concludes that further understanding of the involutionary changes in the brain may require other, more sensitive methods of investigation than are now avail...
متن کاملPreparation, radiochemical purity control and stability of 99mTc-mertiatide (Mag-3).
BACKGROUND Scintigraphic image analysis of 99mTc-mertiatide (Mag-3, mercaptoacetyltriglycine) clearance provides the determination of the blood flow, the tubular transit time and the excretion as well from both kidneys. Radiopharmaceutical routine recommends a radiochemical purity control before administration of the product to a patient. The main objective of this study is to develop a Mag-3 l...
