Poor results for dual-phase parathyroid scintigraphy have recently prompted increased use of dual-tracer imaging. We noticed that seminal studies used higher radiochemical purity than provided by current commercial preparations meeting US Pharmacopea (USP) specifications (90 of technetium bound to sestamibi). We surmised that the presence of unbound Tc (non-MIBI tracer) might hamper dual-phase detection that is dependent on rapid wash-out of technetium from thyroid tissue. |
