A neutral technetium-99m complex for myocardial imaging
- Squibb Institute for Medical Research, New Brunswick, NJ (USA)
Technetium-99m-CDO-MeB (Bis(1,2-cyclohexanedione-dioximato(1-)- O)-(1,2-cyclohexanedione dioximato(2-)-O)methyl-borato(2-)- N,N',N'',N''',N'''',N''''')-chlorotechnetium belongs to a family of compounds generally known as boronic acid adducts of technetium dioxime complexes (BATOs). It has an intrinsic affinity for the myocardium, with negligible lung activity and rapid blood clearance. The uptake of 3.44% ID in rat heart at 1 min postinjection for ({sup 99m}Tc)CDO-MeB versus 3.03% for {sup 201}TI indicates high extraction of ({sup 99m}Tc)CDO-MeB by the myocardium. In dogs an ischemic defect is clearly seen in SPECT images obtained 10 min after injection of ({sup 99m}Tc)CDO-MeB. Tissue distribution data in rats show that ({sup 99m}Tc)CDO-MeB is excreted primarily in the feces and to a lesser extent in the urine. Approximately 80% of the activity is excreted within 24 hr after injection.
