Autoradiographic Studies of Distribution in the Stomach of99mTc-Pertechnetate

Abstract
The histological and cytological distribution of 99mTc-pertechnetate in mouse, rat, cat and dog stomachs was studied by autoradiography. Unlike halogens, Tc is handled predominantly by the gastric surface mucosal cells. The parietal and chief cells have little or no role in the gastric secretion of Tc-pertechnetate.
