The long-lived fission product $^{99}Tc$ is present in large quantities in nuclear wastes and its chemical behavior in aqueous solution is of considerable interest. Under oxidizing conditions technetium exists as the anionic species $TcO_4^-$ whereas under the reducing conditions it is generally predicted that technetium will be present as $TcO_2{\cdot}nH_2O$. Technetium oxide was prepared by reduction of a technetate solution with $Sn^{2+}$. The concentration of total technetium and Tc(IV) species in the solutions were periodically determined by separating the oxidized and reduced technetium species using a solvent extraction procedure and counting the beta activity of the $^{99}Tc$ with a liquid scintillation counter. The experimental results show that the rate of oxidation of Tc(IV) in simulated groundwater and redistilled water is about $(1.49{\~}1.86){\times}10^{-9} mol/(L{\cdot}d$) under aerobic conditions, but Tc(IV) in simulated groundwater and redistilled water is not oxidized under anaerobic conditions. Under aerobic or anaerobic conditions the solubility of Tc(IV) oxide in simulated groundwater and redistilled water is equal on the whole.

To determine the contents of $^{99}Tc$ in the spent PWR (pressurized water reactor) nuclear fuels by ICP-MS (inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry), a technetium separation method using an extraction chromatographic resin (TEVA Spec resin) has been established. $^{99}Tc$ was separated from a spent PWR nuclear fuel solution by this separation procedure and its concentration was determined by ICP-MS. The result agrees well with the value calculated by the program ORIGEN 2 and also the value measured by AG MP-1 resin/ICP-MS method described in our previous paper. It can be concluded that the present separation procedure is superior to the AG MP-1 resin procedure with respect to the time required for technetium separation as well as the efficiency of decontamination from other radioactive nuclides.

In general, hot nodules on techetium scan are regarded as benign tumors, and usually no further work up for malignancy is indicated, if they are truly autonomous. The authors experienced two cases of thyroid carcinoma presenting as hot nodule on technetium-99m pertechnetate thyroid scintigraphy. One case with papillary carcinoma, and other case with follicular carcinoma are presented in addition to a review of the literature.

본 연구는 랫드에서 Freund's complete adjuvant를 랫드의 후지에 투여하여 인의적으로 유발된 관절염을 진단하기 위한 방법으로 $^{99m}Technetium-MDP (^{99m}Tc_MDP$)을 이용한 골 스캔의 임상적 의의를 찾고자 하였다. 성숙 Sprague-Dawley 암컷 랫드를 대조군과 실험군으로 분리하고, 골의 스캔은 0.05mCi의 $^{99m}Tc_MDP$를 정맥 주사하여 3시간 후에 전신 영상을 얻었다. 골의 스캔과 방사선학적 평가를 비교한 겨과 관절염 유발 7일 후부터 관절염의 병변이 관찰되었지만, 방사선학적 소견에서는 14일 후부터 병변이 관찰되었다. 골의 스캔에서 관절염 유발 7일 후에 유의적으로 골의 이상적 섭취 증각가 관찰되었고(p<0.05), 21일 후에는 전지와 후지의 모든 부위에서 골의 이상적 섭취 증가가 관찰되었지만, 방사선학적 소견에서는 후지에서만 병변 부위가 관찰되었다. 이상의 결과에서 $^{99m}Tc_MDP$을 이용한 골의 스캔은 류마티스 관절염을 임상적으로 진단하는데 방사선학적 진단보다 효과적인 방법임을 알 수가 있었고, 골의 스캔은 류마티스 관절염을 초기에 진단하는데 유효한 진단방법임을 확인하였다.

Clinical assessment of bone-graft healing in the maxillofacial region is generally limited to clinical evaluation, radiographs, and biopsy. Sequential interpretation of osseous repair, more sensitive than with conventional radiography is possible with a non-invasive, non-destructive radionuclide method. Technetium-99m radionuclide bone scan was used in the evaluation of the progress of osteogenic activity in autologous iliac bone graft and freeze-dried bone allograft of dog's mandible. Bone scan was performed at 1wk, 2wk, 4wk, 6wk, and 8wk after grafting. In autologous graft the activity ratio for the graft bone remained greater than that of the host since 2자 after grafting; however, in lyophilized allograft the activity ratio for graft bone was greater than that of the host at 6자 after grafting.

Although the exact mechanism is not clearly understood yet, there were examples of the uptake of radiopharmaceuticals to the soft tissue lesions with $^{99m}Technetium$ methylene diphosphonate bone scan. Recently, we experienced two cases of neuroblastoma of which primary sites were imaged with $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ bone scan preoperatively and could make the diagnosis. So, we report here that $^{99m}Tc-MDP$ bone scan is the reasonable method not only to find out the bone metastasis, but also to diagnose the neuroblastoma preoperatively.
