Technetium (99mTc) human immunoglobulin is a diagnostic radiopharmaceutical agent composed of human immunoglobulin G labeled with technetium-99m. It is primarily used as a radiotracer in nuclear medicine for the imaging of inflammatory lesions and infection. The preparation is not intended for therapeutic use but for diagnostic purposes. Technetium (99mTc) human immunoglobulin is approved in several countries for scintigraphic detection of inflammation and infection sites.
Estimated pharmacokinetic parameters for adult subjects based on radiolabeled immunoglobulin imaging agents. No direct peer-reviewed PK dataset for technetium (99mTc) human immunoglobulin was found; values here are based on analogy with similar radiolabeled human IgG imaging agents.
