Technetium-99m tetrofosmin uptake in lung cancer: comparison with thallium-201.

abstract：:To design a mathematical model for quantifying cerebral blood flow using 99mTc-hexamethyl-propyleneamine oxime (HM-PAO), basic studies were performed in animals and human volunteers. Microautoradiography revealed that HM-PAO crossed the blood-brain barrier. Thin layer chromatographic studies demonstrated the rapid dis...
