The accurate assessment of local blood flow by recording the washout of a deposit of radiolabelled 4-iodoantipyrine (4-IAP) requires the use of a stable radiopharmaceutical. This communication shows that it is possible to produce a 125I and 131I-4-IAP compound which fulfills this requirement under simulated conditions of use.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
