Radiopharmacy Comparison of Pretinning Methods to Label Leukocytes with Technetium-99m
نویسندگان
چکیده
Leukocytes labeled with technetium-99m using pretinning with stannous complexes of pyrophosphate, glucoheptonate, and gentisic acid were compared with respect to labeling efficiency, time required for labeling, in vitro cell viability, initial lung transit, and image quality following reinjection into normal volunteers. Gentisic acid pretinning was the best method, offering the shortest preparation time, moderate labeling efficiency, rapid lung clearance, and greatest in vivo stability.

متن کاملAssessment of molybdenum breakthrough levels in molybdenum-99/technetium-99m generators: One year experience at NIMRA Jamshoro Pakistan
Background: Technetium-99m radioisotope is the backbone of any nuclear medicine institute. This radioisotope is acquired by the elution of Molybdenum-99/Technetium-99m generator which emits 141 keV gamma ray and having 6.04 hour half-life. Occasionally the contents of Molybdenum-99 may mix up with elute, which may affect image quality and patients may receive higher doses than recommended. This...
