The high expression of somatostatin receptors in many tumours, have made receptor scintigraphy with 111In-DTPA-Octreotide a widly used procedure in nuclear medicine. Despite its clinical success, some limitation and drawbacks of radiolabelling with 111In remain, especially those concerned with the cost, availability and physical decay properties of this radionuclide. 99mTc-EDDA/HYNIC-Tyr3...

introduction compartmental analysis allows the mathematical separation of tissues and organs to determine activity concentration in each point of interest. biodistribution studies on humans are costly and complicated, whereas such assessments can be easily performed on rodents. in this study, we aimed to develop a pharmacokinetic model of 153sm-maltolate complex as a novel therapeutic agent and...
