To provide data for radiation dosimetry of 67Ga, recently introduced for scanning tumors, we
have tabulated the tissue distribution of 23 autopsies after intravenous administration …

Since its introduction in 1969, 67 Ga has become the most widely employed tumorscanning
agent in nuclear medicine. While 67 Ga is far from being the ideal tumor-scanning agent, it …

Gallium-67-citrate scintiscans was performed in 149 cases with a variety of malignant,
benign, and inflammatory lesions. Gallium-67-citrate was noted to be valuable in the …

IT IS OBVIOUS that for most, but not all, forms of cancer the effectiveness of treatment can be
enhanced by early diagnosis and by accurate assessment of the extent of the disease after …

It has previously been shown, chemically and autoradiographically, that gallium enters bone
at a rapid rate, following injection of the citrate or lactate, concentrating in those areas …

MATERIALS AND METHODS Gallium-67 was obtained as the chloride,* and con verted to
the citrate form as previously reported (3). The citrate was also obtained commercially. t …

Gallium has an affinity for some human as well as animal neoplasms. Carrier-free gallium
citrate Ga 67 administered intravenously is localized in a variety of malignant tumors that …

Gallium-67 citrate administered intravenously is localised in a variety of malignant tumours
and can be detected by scintiscanning. Twenty patients with a variety of malignant …

Difficulties in scanning are encountered with 47Ca because of the high energy of its
principal gamma ray (1.3 MeV). Strontium-85 has a lower gamma-ray energy (0.51 MeV) but …

Alteration of the gallium-67 (Ga-67) distribution after administration of chemotherapeutic
agents has been demonstrated in experiments on both normal and tumor-bearing animals …
