  • Title: Some aspects of the radiopharmaceutics of 99m-Tc-phytate.
    Author: Sewatkar AB, Noronha OP, Ganatra RD, Glenn HJ.
    Journal: Nucl Med (Stuttg); 1975 Mar 31; 14(1):46-51. PubMed ID: 1144054.
    Abstract:
    This paper outlines the method of preparation of 99m-Tc-phytate and its use for scanning the reticuloendothelial system. The tissue distribution studies in mice and rats indicate that 99m-Tc-phytate is a safe and effective liver imaging agent. This was confirmed by preliminary studies in human subjects. The stability of the aqueous tin-phytate complex is remarkably good, and it could be successfully used for more than two months to prepare the labelled product.
