The Biokinetics of Tc99m Labeled Hepatobiliary Agents in Humans

  • Chapter
Cholescintigraphy

Part of the book series: Developments in Nuclear Medicine ((DNUM,volume 1))

Abstract

Hepatobiliary agents with Tc99m are tracers of bile flow, of bile storage in the gall bladder, of hepatocyte metabolism, of gastrointestinal propagation or of reflux from duodenum (or ileum) into the stomach; the latter objectives require rapid arrival of a sufficient amount of tracer in the duodenum (fig.1). A relatively large number of Tc99m labeled hepatobiliary tracers have been described in the scientific literature:

  • Derivatives of N- (Phenylcarbamoylmethyl) iminodiacetic acid (1,2)

  • Dihydro-thioctic acid (DHT) (3)

  • Mercaptoisobutyric acid (4)

  • Pyridoxylidene Glutamate (PyG) (5)

  • Pyridoxal Leucine (OyL) (5,6,7,8)

  • Pyridoxalphenylalanin (9,10)

  • 8-Hydroxy-quinolin-7-carboxylate (11)

  • D-Penicillamine (12)

  • Tetracycline (13)

  • Toluidine blue (14)
