ABSTRACT:
Disclosed is a composition of matter useful in imaging tissue, the composition comprising a complex formed between technetium (Tc-99m) and 5-thio-D-glucose. Also disclosed is a method of in vivo imaging of acute ischemic tissue and tumors in a mammalian subject comprising delivering into the subject an effective amount of (Tc-99m)-5-thio-D-glucose, and scanning the subject to determine the distribution of the Tc-99m-TG complex in the subject. A method of preparing the composition of matter is also disclosed.
