technetium-99m subtraction scanning
Solitary parathyroid adenomas were correctly located before surgery in 20 out of 21 cases by using 20lmTl and 99mTc in a subtraction technique. The technique was not useful in identifying hyperplastic parathyroid glands. The technique is recommended as a useful procedure before surgery for primary hyperparathyroidism.
متن کاملTechnetium-99m Ceftizoxime Kit Preparation
The aim of this work was to prepare a kit of Tc-ceftizoxime (Tc-CFT), with stability and biological activity preserved, able to identify a septic focus (E. coli) in the experimental infection model in rats. The preparation of the CFT kit involved the use of lyophilized solutions containing the antibiotic ceftizoxime and the sodium dithionite reducing agent (6.0 mg/mL). After lyophilization, the...
متن کاملNUCLEAR PHARMACY Rapid Quality Control of Technetium-99m-2-Methoxy Isobutyl Isonitrile (Technetium-99m-Sestamibi)
Objective: Technetium-99m-sestamibi (-1"'Tc-MIBI) is a radiopharmaceutical imaging agent useful for assessing myocardial perfusion. We present a simple, rapid and accurate SepPak® method to confirm the radiochemical purity of "'Tc-MIBI. Methods: Technetium-99m-MIBI preparations of high (>95%), intermediate (83-90%) and low (25-43%) radiochemical purity were evaluated by the recommended thinlaye...
متن کاملComparison of technetium-99m IgG with technetium-99m red blood cells labeling in cardiac
This first clinical prospective study was conducted to use of technetium-99m immunoglobulin G (99mTc-IgG) as compared with autologous 99mTc-red blood cells (RBC) in gated blood pool ventriculography. We studied 12 patients who referred to us for a possible diagnosis of liver hemangioma or infection. Six patients underwent gated planar blood pool (GPBP) acquisition using 99mTc-RBC and 6 GPBP acq...
متن کاملMicrowave Preparation of Technetium-99m Sulfur Colloid
Technetium-99m sulfur colloid ( mTc-SC) has been useful in reticuloendothelial imaging, and in particular in liver/spleen and more recently bone marrow scintigraphy. Technetium99m SC can also be employed to localize acute gastrointestinal bleeding and has been used in lung ventilation studies. The standard radiolabeling method requires a heating period in a boiling water bath. A comparison of a...
