Preparation of Xenon-133 Solution for Intravenous Administration
نویسنده
چکیده
A method for routine preparation of a solution of 133 Xe gas in saline from commercially available m Xe gas ampoules is described and evaluated. At room temperature and atmospheric pressure, about 25% of the mxe gas dissolves in saline. Xenon-133 binds to the syringe wall or may escape into the air when stored in sealed plastic syringes. Preparation immediately prior to use, short-term storage in a properly closed glass vial, and assay of the syringe for activity before and after injection are important considerations for delivering accurate amounts of mxe gas in saline solution.

Regional lung function using xenon-133 was studied in 45 seated patients aged 11 to 78 years with untreated idiopathic scoliosis and angulation of curvature between 10 and 1900. Perfusion distribution was assessed by intravenous bolus injection of '33Xe and distribution of ventilation to volume ratios by washouts after inhalation and intravenous injection. No consistent differences between the ...
