摘要
Biopsy of the first tumour-draining lymph node (sentinel node, SN) is bound to become the procedure of choice in regional staging of melanoma and breast cancer patients. Several radiopharmaceuticals have been developed for lymphoscintigraphy. In this paper we review the most frequently used radiopharmaceuticals for their appropriateness in the sentinel-node procedure. We conclude that accurate localization of SNs is demonstrated using technetium-99m-sulfur colloid (Tc-99m-SC), Tc-99m antimony trisulfide colloid (Tc-99m-ATC) [10] and Tc-99m nanocolloidal albumin (Tc-99m-CA). Tc-99m-Ca and Tc-99m-SC are both available in Europe. In the United States Tc-99m-SC is the only registered tracer for lymphoscintigraphy.
