  • Title: 99mTc-diethyl-IDA: the extraction efficiency of the liver.
    Author: Galli G, Orlando P, Massari P, Bonifazi N, Magistrelli P, Coppola R.
    Journal: Eur J Nucl Med; 1983; 8(5):187-90. PubMed ID: 6307697.
    Abstract:
    The extraction efficiencies of the liver were studied in rabbits by injection in the portal vein of 99mTc-IDA and 131I-Rose Bengal in two experimental conditions. In the first experiment blood samples were collected for one minute from a catheter inserted into the vena cava with the tip at the sovrahepatic veins outflow level. The vena cava was ligated upperstream. In the second experiment blood was collected from the general circulation every other minute for 20' after administration. Control experiments were performed in rabbits by administration of 99mTc-Pertechnetate and 99mTc-Albumin. The results showed that the extraction of diethyl-IDA from the blood flowing through the liver is almost total.
