INHALATION PULMONARY SCINTIPHOTOGRAPHY USING PERTECHNETATE

DAVID J. COOK M.B., B.S.1 and HARRY LANDER F.R.A.C.P.2

Inhalation lung scintiphotos of good quality with a minimum of bronchial deposition have been obtained using a simple, inexpensive nebulizing system and technetium in the pertechnetate form.

The method described is a rapid means of obtaining useful information regarding airway patency with no radiopharmaceutical preparation.

Pertechnetate is a suitable radiopharmaceutical for inhalation lung studies providing scintiphotos are obtained during the inhalation phase and not exclusively after inhalation ceases, when pertechnetate is rapidly cleared from the lungs.
