Tc-99m HMDP (hydroxymethylene diphosphonate): a radiopharmaceutical for skeletal and acute myocardial infarct imaging. II. comparison of Tc-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (HMDP) with other technetium-labeled bone-imaging agents in a canine model

Technetium-99m hydroxymethylene diphosphonate (Tc-HMDP) was compared with the two other diphosphonates (Tc-MDP and Tc-HEDP) and Tc-99m pyrophosphate (Tc-PPi) in a canine model of acute myocardial infarction. The Tc-HMDP showed higher uptake in infarcted myocardium than the other two diphosphonates, and uptake equivalent to that of Tc-PPi.
