Technetium-99m-human fibrinogen.

Exogenous fibrinogen has been successfully labeled with 99mTc using a modified electrolytic method. The exact labeling mechanism has not been determined. Experimental data suggest that the labeling process of 99mTc-fibrinogen is quite similar to that of 99mTc-human serum albumin as reported earlier by Benjamin. Technetium-99m-fibrinogen is stable in human plasma or in 1% buffered human serum albumin. A binding efficiency of 76% has been achieved with approximately 25% clottable protein. The entire labeling procedure requires less than 1 hr of preparation time. This short labeling time in a closed system may allow development of a practical method for labeling autologous fibrinogen, thus eliminating the risk of hepatitis transmission.

Technique for producing cardiac radionuclide motion images.

Sequential frames of different portions of the cardiac cycle are gated into a minicomputer by using an EKG signal recorded onto digital tape simultaneously with imaging information. Serial display of these frames on the computer oscilloscope or projection of 35-mm half frames of these images provides a cardiac motion image with information content adequate for qualitatively assessing cardiac motion.
