FIGURE 5.  Whole-body scintigraphic images (anterior view) of ACI rats subcutaneously transplanted with hNIS-expressing (right thigh) or wild-type Morris hepatoma cells (left thigh) at 30 min (A), 2 h (B), 4 h (C), and 24 h (D) after intravenous injection of 131I. T = thyroid; S = stomach; NIS = NIS-expressing tumor; WT = wild-type tumor.
