ABSTRACT
In preliminary clinical studies a new bone-scanning agent, 99mTc-labeled monofluorophosphate (MFP), provided satisfactory visualization of bone tumors. Comparison of MFP with EHDP shows, however, that because of higher tumor/bone ratios, lower blood activities, and more rapid whole-body excretion, EHDP remains the agent of choice at present.
