• Information in this record refers to the use of technetium Tc 99m disofenin (Tc 99m DISIDA) as a diagnostic agent. (nih.gov)
  • 1 ] The effective half-life of Tc 99m DISIDA ranges from 3.6 to 3.8 hours. (nih.gov)
  • 1] Other experts state that breastfeeding need not be interrupted after administration of technetium Tc 99m exametazime in doses up to 500 MBq (15 mCi) to a nursing mother. (nih.gov)
  • For white blood cells labeled with technetium Tc 99m exametazime 180 to 400 MBq, the International Atomic Energy Agency recommends that breastfeeding should be interrupted for 12 hours. (nih.gov)
  • Hence, in view of the above applications this mass attenuation coefficient is estimated by WinXCom program which is the successor of program Xcom for the technetiumā€99m compounds such as mebrofenin, disofenin, lidofenin, bisicate, and exametazime for the photon energy range from 8 to 32 keV. (tanjit.net)
  • Tc 99m is a gamma emitter with a principal photon energy of 140 keV and a physical half-life of 6.04 hours. (nih.gov)
  • For nursing mothers who work with Tc 99m substances in their workplace, there is no need to take any precautions other than those appropriate for general radiation protection. (nih.gov)
