“…177 Lu with considerable characteristics has been recognized as one of the most promising radionuclides. The significant advantage of using 177 Lu is its b -particle energies which are adequately low, therefore the bone marrow suppression is minimum when it accumulates in skeletal lesions [20]. On the other hand, 177 Lu can be produced with high specific activity via the indirect method by neutron irradiation of 176 Yb.…”

“…The high bone affinity of BPs is due to their common diphosphonate moiety, { 2 ( 2 HO)(O)P-C-P(O)-(OH 2 ) 2 }, whereas the varying pharmacological activity of the BPs is due to different chemical moieties attached to the central C-atom of BPs. The high bone-affinity of BPs was initially utilized to target radioactive metal ions, such as technetium (3,4), to bone for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The BPs typically bind to metal ions through electrostatic interactions and deliver the radioactive ion to bone sites.…”

“…177 Lu with considerable characteristics has been recognized as one of the most promising radionuclides. The significant advantage of using 177 Lu is its β -particle energies which are adequately low; therefore the bone marrow suppression is minimum when it accumulates in skeletal lesions (Deligny et al, 1990). However, different complexes of 177 Lu with bisphosphonates have been developed; the only clinically used Lu-177 bone pain palliation therapeutic agent is 177 Lu-EDTMP.…”

“…177 Lu with considerable characteristics [t 1/2 =6.73 d, E βmax = 497 MeV, Eγ=112 keV (6.4%), 208 keV (11%)] has been recognized as one of the most promising radionuclides. The significant advantage of using 177 Lu is its  -particle energies which are adequately low, therefore the bone marrow suppression is minimum when it accumulates in skeletal lesions (Deligny et al 1990). …”
