The lipophilic 99mTc-DPO complex, developed as a myocardial imaging radiopharmaceutical, was used to label leucocytes. After an incubation of 0.1 ml 99mTc-DPO (8 micrograms DMPE*2HCl) with mixed leucocytes in plasma, the labelling efficiency was over 70%. During incubation in 5 ml plasma, a loss of activity was found between 20% (1 h) and 35% (3 h) caused by elution. Disturbances of cell viability could not be found with the help of the chemiluminescence test. The in vivo recovery was determined in three dogs and was 45%-50% (0.5 h), 30%-36% (1 h), and 18%-24% (3 h). Autologous 99mTc-DPO-leucocytes were used on seven patients with suspected osteomyelitis, there were four true negative and three true positive results. The target/nontarget ratio determined by ROI in the positive cases was 1.8 to 2.5 at 3 h after injection.

We evaluated lipophilicity and biodistribution of a series of 99m Tc(CO) 3 -ether isonitrile complexes to determine whether different lipophilicity and structure of isonitrile ligands would improve the imaging properties of the radiopharmaceutical for the heart. Novel 99m Tc(CO) 3 -MIBI analogs were
A new method allowing the labelling of fibrinogen with 99mTcO4- is described. The 99mTcO4- is reduced by stannous chloride in an alkaline medium. After 1 h incubation with fibrinogen, the pH was brought down to 7.1. The study of (1) the pH of the solution, (2) the quantity of the reducer, and (3) th
## Abstract ^123^Iโlabeled fatty acids and ^18^FโFDG are used as metabolic markers for detecting myocardial abnormalities. However, a ^99m^Tcโbased molecule may find wider application. In the present work, a new ^99m^Tcโlabeled, uniโpositively charged, 16โcarbon fatty acid has been prepared and eva
The preparation of [99mTc(1,2-bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane)2Cl2]+ ([99mTc(DMPE)2Cl2]+) for imaging the myocardium is investigated. Starting from Fe(III)- or Fe(II)-DMPE and 99mTcO4- different preparation variants are compared. In these reactions either ascorbic acid or DTPA serves as an agent for co
The in vivo 99mTc-RBC labelling efficiency and stability of labelling was assessed after pretinning with a high-stannous content DTPA kit (Sn DTPA) in comparison with Sn-pyrophosphate (Sn PPi) and a low-stannous DTPA kit (DTPA). The distribution in Sprague Dawley rats showed that similar fractions o
