  • Title: 123-Iodine: a new isotope for functional renal scanning.
    Author: O'Reilly PH, Herman KJ, Lawson RS, Shields RA, Testa HJ.
    Journal: Br J Urol; 1977 Feb; 49(1):15-21. PubMed ID: 837042.
    Abstract:
    The results are presented of functional renal scanning in 11 urological patients using 123-iodine labelled Hippuran--a new radiopharmaceutical. The 123-iodine isotope possesses distinct advantages over existing isotopes, permitting high resolution imaging whilst delivering a low integrated radiation dose. It is hoped that the expense of this cyclotron-produced isotope will not mitigate against full evaluation of its promising potential.
