Abstract:
STUDY ON ~(99)Tc~m-DTPA-HSA AS A NEW BLOOD POOL SCANNING AGENT Liu Yunzhong Zhang Zheng Wu Qingwen Guo Feng Liu Huaping Zhang Weihe Zhou Baogui Liu Xiujie(Fuwai Hospital,CAMS,Beijing 100037)Tang Hong Lin Qiongfang(China Institute of Atomic Energy, Bei jing,102413)ABSTRACT The biological behavior of~(99)Tc~m-DTPA-HSA,~(99)Tc~m-RBC(in vivo)and ~(99)Tc~m-HSA are studied inrabbits,Excellent cardiac blood-pOOl images are obtained by~(99)Tc~m-TPA-HSA and~(99)Tc~m-RBC.Biodis-tribution studies show that~(99) Tc~m-DTPA- HSA has less accumulation than~(99) Tc~m-RBC in lungs and liV-er,they have similar count ratio of the cardiac blood pool to whole body,ratio of heart/liver is 0.85for ~(99)Tc~m-DTPA-HSA,0.9 5 for~(99)Tc~m-RBC and 0.6 2 fOr~(99)Tc~m-HSA.~(99)Tc~m-DTPA-HSA is a promis-ing agent.It is readily performed only by single in vivo injection.Key words cardiac blood pool scintigraphy ~(99)Tc~m-DTPA-HSA
