Post‐radiosynovectomy imaging of Er‐169 using scintigraphy and autoradiography

Abstract

Currently, there is no protocol for the detection of intra‐articular distribution of Er‐169 citrate after radiosynovectomy. We propose post‐therapeutic imaging using scintigraphy and cobalt‐57 pen‐marker autoradiography. This technique evaluates the efficacy of the radiosynovectomy and patient safety and could be utilized for dosimetric protocol.
