  • Title: Effects of acute administration of ethane hydroxydiphosphonate (EHDP) on skeletal scintigraphy with technetium-99m methylene diphosphonic acid (Tc-MDP) in the rat.
    Author: Watt I, Hill P.
    Journal: Br J Radiol; 1981 Jul; 54(643):592-6. PubMed ID: 6455174.
    Abstract:
    A study has been performed in the rat to assess the effect of EHDP on the distribution of 99Tcm-labelled MDP used for skeletal imaging. Profound alterations in bone, kidney and blood levels were observed. These observations cast doubt on the value of bone scans for monitoring the therapeutic effect of diphosphonates.
