Abstract
A new method for the sequential monitoring of skeletal uptake of 99mTc-diphosphonate over a 5-day period, utilising both a gamma camera and whole-body monitor, is presented. It has been found that diphosphonate continues to be removed from bone over this period. Normal subjects appear to lose skeletal activity initially at a more rapid rate than those with altered skeletal metabolism and it is suggested that differences in binding characteristics may exist.Entities:
