Technetium Tc-99m mebrofenin is a diagnostic radiopharmaceutical agent used during hepatobiliary imaging tests. Technetium Tc 99m Mebrofenin is a diagnostic radiopharmaceutical composed of diisopropyl-iminodiacetic acid (DISIDA) attached to a technetium-99m ion.
- Mechanism
- Curator reviewed
Technetium Tc 99m Mebrofenin has no known pharmacologic activity at the recommended doses. It is used as a diagnostic agent as Technetium-99m decays by isomeric transition to technetium-99 through the release of a detectable gamma ray.
