This paper summarizes the results of our mechanistic studies on {sup 117m}Sn(4+){minus} DTPA to determine (i) the effect of oxidation state and specific activity of {sup 117m}Sn, (ii) effect of the addition of calcium, (iii) the nature of chemical species of tin in blood and urine, and (iv) kinetics of uptake and washout of radioactivity from bone relative to technetium, rhenium, and samarium bone agents.
