Abstract

Polyvinyl alcohol sponge (PVA) is a widely used angiographic embolic agent. The radiolabeling of PVA can accurately identify particle localization and may decrease the possibility of patient morbidity from embolization to distal sites. We incorporated ^99mTc sulfur colloid (SC) into PVA by heating. Animal experiments demonstrated the in vivo stability of the ^99mTc SC-PVA complex and the efficacy of external imaging. ^99mTc SC-PVA biodistribution data and external NaI(Tl) scintillation probe counts were performed, to assess anatomic localization. Embolization with this complex was performed in a patient.
