Technetium-99m in production and use [PDF]
Several types of generators have been developed for the production of 99mTc. Due to its excellent performances, the chromatographic type, based on the fission-produced 99Mo sorbed in alumina, is predominant.

Use of Technetium‐99m‐Pyrophosphate Single‐Photon Emission Computed Tomography/Computed Tomography in Monitoring Therapeutic Changes of Eplontersen in Patients With Hereditary Transthyretin Amyloid Cardiomyopathy [PDF]
Background Hereditary transthyretin amyloid cardiomyopathy (hATTR‐CM) is a progressive and fatal disease. Recent evidence indicates that bone scintigraphy may serve as a tool to monitor the effectiveness of hATTR‐CM treatment. The objective of this study

Evaluation of thyroid nodules with technetium‐99m MIBI and technetium‐99m pertechnetate [PDF]
AbstractBackgroundMost thyroid centers use fine‐needle aspiration (FNA) and technetium‐99m pertechnetate for the preoperative assessment of thyroid nodules. This approach is sufficient in most cases other than follicular neoplasm, and follicular carcinoma is more common than papillary carcinoma in developing countries such as in our center.
