Uses

The Technelite generator is a source of sodium pertechnetate Tc 99m for use in the preparation of FDA-approved diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals, as described in the labeling of these diagnostic radiopharmaceutical kits. Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m Injection is used IN ADULTS as an agent for: Thyroid Imaging Salivary Gland Imaging Urinary Bladder Imaging (direct isotopic cystography) for the detection of vesico-ureteral reflux. Nasolacrimal Drainage System Imaging Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m Injection is used IN CHILDREN as an agent for: Thyroid Imaging Urinary Bladder Imaging (direct isotopic cystography) for the detection of vesico-ureteral reflux.

Dosing overview

Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m Injection is usually administered by intravascular injection. For imaging the urinary bladder and ureters (direct isotopic cystography), the Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m Injection is administered by direct instillation aseptically into the bladder via a urethral catheter, following which the catheter is flushed with approximately 200 mL of 0.9% Sodium Chloride Injection, USP directly into the bladder. The dosage employed varies with each diagnostic procedure. When imaging the nasolacrimal drainage system, instill the Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m Injection by the use of a device such as a micropipette or similar method which will ensure the accuracy of the dose.

Warnings and precautions

Radiation risks associated with the use of Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m Injection are greater in children than in adults and, in general, the younger the child, the greater the risk owing to greater absorbed radiation doses and longer life-expectancy. These greater risks should be taken firmly into account in all benefit-risk assessments involving children. Long-term cumulative radiation exposure may be associated with an increased risk of cancer.
