PRODUCT DATA
AUST R 14329
DESCRIPTION
This Kit consists of sterile, pyrogen free lypohilised ingredients
which need
reconstitution with sodium pertechnetate [
99m
Tc] injection to produce a
technetium [
99m
Tc] etifenin complex suitable for hepatobiliary imaging.
The precise structure of the technetium [
99m
Tc] etifenin complex is not known at
this time. Technetium [
99m
Tc] etifenin is a diagnostic pharmaceutical
administered by intravenous injection.

PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF TECHNETIUM-99M
Technetium-99m with a physical half life of 6 hours decays by isomeric
transition to technetium-99. Photons associated with this transition
that are
useful for detection and imaging studies are listed in Table 1.
