Scintigraphic imaging of breast cancer: a review.

abstract：:Technetium-99m-galactosyl human serum albumin (99mTc-GSA) is a radiopharmaceutical that binds to asialoglycoprotein receptors in the hepatocyte membrane; the level of 99mTc-GSA accumulation in the liver correlates well with the parameters of hepatic function tests. We hypothesized that the early blood kinetics of 99mT...
