Scintigraphic imaging was performed in male Albino rabbits. Exorphin C glucuronide showed rapid and efficient labeling with (99m)Tc using glucoheptonate as a bifunctional chelate. Results demonstrated that (99m)Tc-GEG may be a useful new type of glucuronide derivative of peptides for diagnosis of some cancer diseases. | | Language | ENG | | Pub Type(s) | JOURNAL ARTICLE
