The stability of 99mTc-DTPA and 99mTc-HIDA following ultrasonic nebulisation

The stability of 99mTc-DTPA (diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid) and 99mTc-HIDA (2,6-diethylacetanilido-iminodiacetic acid) were evaluated following ultrasonic nebulisation. The results confirm that either of these radiopharmaceuticals can be used in our nebuliser without significant radiochemical...

Description
Summary:The stability of 99mTc-DTPA (diethylenetriamine-pentaacetic acid) and 99mTc-HIDA (2,6-diethylacetanilido-iminodiacetic acid) were evaluated following ultrasonic nebulisation. The results confirm that either of these radiopharmaceuticals can be used in our nebuliser without significant radiochemical breakdown.
