The article entirled, “Development of 166 Holmium-1,2 Propylene Di-amino Tetra (Methy1enephosphonicacid) as a Possible Bone Palliation Agent” published in, pages 28-33, issue 1, vol. 13 of World Journal of Nuclear Medicine[1] is being retracted. It has been found that the concerned article has several overlapping text-sections from a previously published article by same group of authors, entitled, “Production, Quality Control and Biological Evaluation of 166Ho-PDTMP as a Possible Bone Palliation Agent” in pages 719-725, issue 5, vol.16 of Iranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences[2]. Hence the article is being retracted on the grounds of duplicity of content.Prof. John Buscombe,Acting Editor in Chief, WJNM, Department of Nuclear Medicine, Addenbrooke's Hospital, Cambridge, CB2 0QQ, UK
