Technetium (99mTc) stannous agent labelled cells are autologous blood cells (usually red blood cells or leukocytes) that are labelled ex vivo with a technetium-99m stannous agent. Used as a radiopharmaceutical, they assist in the diagnostic imaging of various conditions such as gastrointestinal bleeding (with labelled red blood cells) or infection/inflammation imaging (with labelled leukocytes). The compound is approved as a diagnostic agent used in nuclear medicine imaging techniques.
Estimated PK parameters for autologous technetium-99m labelled cells in healthy adult subjects based on general radiopharmaceutical pharmacokinetic knowledge; no specific original compartmental PK parameters published for this preparation.
