Ray spectra of the eluted "mTc (T,,, = 6.02 h) and of the spent "MO generators (T,,, = 65.9 h) have been measured using a high-resolution y-ray spectrometer. Analysis of the measured spectra have shown that together with the 140.5 keV y-ray line of the %Tc, other y-ray lines resulting from other rad

Radionuclide impurities of radiopharmaceuticals do not provide any diagnostic information, but contribute to the radiation dose to the patient. For 99mTc, even small amounts of long lived radionuclide impurities may contribute significantly to the dose from 99mTc itself. In this preliminary study, e
At irregular intervals, a 99mTc-labelled microcolloid for liver and spleen scintigraphy was reported to accumulate in the lungs, in the absence of any pathophysiological condition usually associated with this phenomenon. These findings were in direct contrast to the results obtained during quality c
