Technetium-99m diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid (Tc-99m DTPA) is formed by the addition of Tc-99m as pertechnetate to a lyophilized mixture of CaNa/sub 3/DTPA and SnCl/sub 2/. A Tc-99m DTPA tin chelate is formed. This dose estimate report is only for Tc-99m DTPA formed by the above method and not for other formulations that may also contain DTPA. The biolgoical distributions used in this report were obtained with preparations having a radiochemical purity of greater than or equal to 95% as measured chromatographically.
