Bone scintigraphy is one of the most common investigations performed in nuclear medicine
and is used routinely in the evaluation of patients with cancer for suspected bone …

One of the major successes of nuclear medicine in recent years has been the clinical utility
of the 99m Tc-Tabeled bone-imaging agents. This article is concerned with the evidence …

This study was performed to elucidate the localization at the cellular level of technetium-99m
phosphorus (99mTc-P) radiopharmaceuticals in acute myocardial infarcts and the …

Mesenteric ischemia is a devastating disease. Only by making an earlier diagnosis can
patient survival rate be improved. Many different modalities, including serum biochemical …

The diphosphonates are currently the skeletal imaging agents of choice and while extremely
sensitive for bony abnormality their mechanism of action remains poorly understood. The …

Many pharmacologic agents modify the expected distribution of radiopharmaceuticals. The
authors have attempted to synthesize the literature to date relating to drug …

In the decade since the introduction of the first 99m Tc phosphates, bone imaging has
become a popular diagnostic tool. Early on, it became apparent that many tissues other than …

Abstract 99m Tc-Methylene diphosphonate (99m Tc-MDP) is widely used in clinical settings
to detect bone abnormalities. However, the mechanism of 99m Tc-MDP uptake in bone is …

In a previous study from this laboratory using this model, the incorporation of three different
99mTc@ labeledphos phates was studied and correlated with the incorporation of 47Caand …

Bone scanning with technetium-labeled diphos phonate compounds is used increasingly as
an aid to medical diagnosis. Various factors have been suggested as determinants of the …
