Abstract

The feasibility of dual-label scintigraphic studies which use the neutron-activated isotopes erbium-171 and samarium-153 is described. Experimental details are provided to correct and minimize the compton scatter contribution of 171Er into the lower-energy 153Sm window. The results from this study demonstrate that this dual-label procedure is sensitive enough to monitor simultaneously the behavior of two discrete regions of the same unit dose in the gastrointestinal tract of man.
