A range of values for the relative attenuation of the radiation emitted by this radionuclide that results from interposition of various thicknesses of Pb is shown in Table 8. For example, the use of a 0.25 cm thickness of Pb will attenuate the radiation emitted by a factor of about 1,000. Table 8.

From these publications, 15 studies were identified for inclusion within a meta-analysis, based upon the following criteria: prospective design, minimum number of 50 lymph node localization procedures, and paired outcome data available for both Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection and blue dye. Within these studies, the number of procedures ranged from 62 to 6,197; in general one procedure involved a single patient but in some uncommon situations, one patient underwent more than one procedure. The patients received subcutaneous Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection doses ranging between 0.1 and 2 mCi. The mean age of patients ranged from 52 to 60 years, and almost all were female. Lymph nodes that contained radioactivity were generally localized based upon increased counts, in comparison to a background threshold (e.g., nodes containing a minimum of radioactive counts 3 times higher than background or containing at least 10 fold higher counts than contiguous nodes). Radioactivity was measured using a handheld gamma counter. Table 10 shows the tracer localization rates where the tracer localization rate (%) is defined as the percentage of procedures which had at least one lymph node containing the specific tracer. Random effect meta-analytic measures were used for estimating various rates of tracer localization by procedure along with the respective confidence intervals. The random effect meta-analytical methods take into account the sample size of each study as well as within and between study variability. In general, most procedures involved the resection of lymph nodes in which a tracer had localized to at least one node. However, in some procedures (estimated at approximately 3.4%) neither tracer was localized to a resected lymph node. The reports were insufficient to establish the basis for failed tracer localization. [ see Dosage and Administration (2.4) ] Table 10 .

In some of the publications, different methods of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection administration were compared: intradermal (ID), subareolar (SA) and intraparenchymal (IP) methods. Generally, more favorable results were seen using the ID and SA routes, with less favorable results reported when surgeons used the IP method. 14.2 Tracer Localization to Lymph Nodes in Malignant Melanoma A systematic review of eight publications examined the use of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid and a blue dye (tracers) to assist surgeons in the localization of lymph nodes among patients with malignant melanoma. A meta-analysis was performed using data from the studies that reported the resected lymph node content of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection and blue dye. Four of the eight publications met this criterion and were included in the meta-analysis. Within these four studies, the number of reported patients ranged from 12 to 94. The patients received subcutaneous Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection doses ranging between 0.25 to 2 mCi. The patients were aged 15 to 89 years and most (53 to 70%) were male. Lymph nodes that contained radioactivity were generally localized based upon increased counts, in comparison to a background threshold (e.g., nodes containing a minimum of radioactive counts 3 times higher than background). Radioactivity was measured using a handheld gamma counter. Table 11 shows the tracer localization rates where the tracer localization rate (%) is defined as the percentage of patients who had at least one lymph node containing the specific tracer.

However, in some patients (estimated at approximately 1.6%) neither tracer was localized to a resected lymph node.

Do not use Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m containing oxidants to reconstitute this kit. The contents of the kit are not radioactive. However, after the Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m is added, maintain adequate shielding of the final preparation. Wear waterproof gloves during the preparation procedure. Do not use Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m containing more than 10 micrograms per mL of aluminum ion because a flocculent precipitate may occur and such a precipitate may localize in the lung. The contents of the kit are sterile and non-pyrogenic. This preparation contains no bacteriostatic preservative. Follow the directions carefully and adhere strictly to aseptic procedures during preparation. Prepare Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection by the following aseptic procedure: Remove the dark brown plastic cap from the Sulfur Colloid multi-dose Reaction Vial and swab the top of the vial closure with alcohol to sterilize the surface. Complete the radiation label and affix to the vial. Place the vial in an appropriate lead-capped radiation shield labeled and identified. With a sterile shielded syringe, aseptically obtain 1 to 3 mL of a suitable, oxidant-free sterile and non-pyrogenic Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m, each milliliter containing a maximum activity of 18,500 MBq (500 mCi). Aseptically add the Sodium Pertechnetate Tc 99m to the vial. Place a lead cover on the vial shield and dissolve the reagent by gentle swirling. Just before use, remove the red cap from the Solution A vial and swab the top of the vial closure with alcohol to sterilize the surface. Using a sterile needle and syringe, aseptically withdraw 1.5 mL Solution A from the vial. Aseptically Inject 1.5mL Solution A into the multi-dose Reaction Vial and swirl again. Transfer the multi-dose Reaction Vial from vial shield and place in a vigorously boiling water bath (water bath should be shielded with 1/8” to 1/4” lead) deep enough to cover the entire liquid contents of the vial. Keep the vial in the water bath for five minutes. Remove the multi-dose Reaction Vial from the water bath and place in the lead shield and allow to cool for three minutes. Swab the vial closure again with an antiseptic. Just before use, remove the blue cap from the Solution B vial and swab the top of the vial closure with alcohol to sterilize the surface. Using a sterile needle and syringe, aseptically withdraw 1.5 mL Solution B from the vial. Aseptically Inject 1.5 mL Solution B into the multi-dose Reaction Vial and swirl again. Record time and date of preparation. Allow the preparation to cool to body temperature before use. Maintain adequate shielding of the radioactive colloid preparation at all times. Where appropriate, dilute the preparation with sterile Sodium Chloride Injection to bring the dosage to within the recommended range. Mix the multi-dose Reaction Vial and aseptically withdraw material with a sterile shielded syringe for use within 6 hours of preparation. For optimum results this time should be minimized. The vial contains no bacteriostatic preservative. Store the reconstituted vial at 20 to 25°C (68 to77°F). Discard vial 6 hours after reconstitution. Carefully agitate the shielded syringe immediately prior to administration of sulfur colloid to avoid particles aggregation and non-uniform distribution of radioactivity. Measure the patient dose by a suitable radioactivity calibration system immediately before administration. Check radiochemical purity before patient administration. Inspect Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection visually for particulate matter and discoloration before administration, whenever solution and container permit. Do not administer the drug if it contains particulate matter or discoloration; dispose of these unacceptable or unused preparations in a safe manner, in compliance with applicable regulations. 2.3 Radiation Dosimetry Subcutaneous injection to assist in lymph node localization Table 1.

Visual inspection was performed to identify the blue-labeled nodes and a hand held gamma counter was used to identify nodes concentrating the radiopharmaceutical. Multiple methods were used to detect the concentrated radioactivity within lymph nodes. For example, investigators used thresholds of background radioactivity to localize nodes containing a minimum of radioactive counts 3 times higher than the background or containing at least 10 fold higher counts than contiguous nodes . In clinical studies of patients with malignant melanoma, preoperative lymphoscintigraphy was usually performed using planar imaging techniques to establish a road map of nodal basins and to facilitate intraoperative identification of lymph nodes. [see Clinical Studies (14)] Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection and other tracers may not localize all lymph nodes and the tracers may differ in their extent of lymph node localization. The lymph node localization of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection is dependent upon the underlying patency and structure of the lymphatic system, the extent of functional reticuloendothelial cells within lymph nodes and the radiopharmaceutical injection technique. Distortion of the underlying lymphatic system architecture and function by prior surgery, radiation or extensive metastatic disease may result in failure of the radiopharmaceutical and other tracers to localize lymph nodes. The use of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection is intended to supplement palpation, visual inspection and other procedures important to lymph node localization. [see Clinical Studies (14)] . Peritoneo-venous (LeVeen) shunt setting in adults: Following administration of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection into the peritoneal cavity, the radiopharmaceutical mixes with the peritoneal fluid. Clearance from the peritoneal cavity varies from insignificant, which may occur with complete shunt blockage, to very rapid clearance with subsequent transfer into the systemic circulation when the shunt is patent. Following transfer into the systemic circulation, the radiopharmaceutical concentrates within the liver (a target organ). Obtain serial images of both the shunt and liver. An adequate evaluation of the difference between total blockage of the shunt and partial blockage may not be feasible in all cases. Transperitoneal absorption of sulfur colloid into the systemic circulation may occur, but it occurs slowly. Therefore, the most definitive scintigraphic evaluation of shunt patency will generally be obtained if there is visualization of both the shunt itself and the liver and/or spleen within the first three hours post intraperitoneal injection of the radiopharmaceutical. Imaging areas of functioning reticuloendothelial cells in liver, spleen or bone marrow: Altered biodistribution with lung and soft tissue uptake instead of reticuloendothelial system has been reported after intravenous injection. The size and physical-chemical properties of the sulfur colloid particles formed from the components of the kit may determine the biodistribution of the colloid and its uptake by the reticuloendothelial system. Diseases affecting the reticuloendothelial system may also alter the expected uptake pattern.

All radiopharmaceuticals, including Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection, have a potential to cause fetal harm depending on the stage of fetal development and the magnitude of the radiopharmaceutical dose. If considering Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection administration to a pregnant woman, inform the patient about the potential for adverse pregnancy outcomes based on the radiation dose from the drug and the gestational timing of exposure. The estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage for the indicated population is unknown. In the U.S. general population, the estimated background risk of major birth defects and miscarriage in clinically recognized pregnancies is 2–4% and 15–20%, respectively. Data Human Data Among 14 infants born to pregnant patients exposed to Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection for lymph node localization, no birth defects were reported following drug exposure. 8.2 Lactation Risk Summary Technetium Tc 99m is excreted in human milk during lactation. Exposure of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection to a breastfed infant can be minimized by temporary discontinuation of breastfeeding [see Clinical Considerations] . The developmental and health benefits of breastfeeding should be considered along with the mother’s clinical need for Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection and any potential adverse effects on the breastfed child from Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection or from the underlying maternal condition. Clinical Considerations To decrease radiation exposure to the breastfed infant, advise a lactating woman to pump and discard breast milk for 24 hours after administration of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection. Following higher dose procedures [greater than 370 MBq (10 mCi)], patients should minimize close contact with infants for 6 hours after receiving a Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection. 8.4 Pediatric Use The safety and efficacy of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid kit in pediatric patients has been shown for the following indications: liver, spleen, and bone marrow imaging, and gastroesophageal and pulmonary aspiration studies. 8.5 Geriatric Use Clinical studies of Kit for the Preparation of Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection did not include sufficient numbers of subjects aged 65 and over to determine whether they respond differently from younger subjects."],"dosage_and_administration_table":["<table ID=\"_RefID0ETDAE\" width=\"100%\"><caption>Table 1.

Its key strength lies in its mechanism of action, which allows it to effectively enter lymphatic capillaries and be taken up by the reticuloendothelial system, enhancing diagnostic accuracy. The primary risk is the key composition patent expiry in 2028, which could lead to increased competition and potential revenue erosion.","mechanism":{"explanation":"When injected subcutaneously, Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid travels through lymphatic capillaries to lymph nodes, aiding in the detection of nodal metastasis. When injected intraperitoneally, it mixes with peritoneal fluid, and its clearance rate helps assess shunt patency. Intravenous injection allows imaging of reticuloendothelial system-rich structures.","oneSentence":"Technetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid is used for imaging by entering lymphatic capillaries, mixing with peritoneal fluid, or being taken up by the reticuloendothelial system.","technicalDetail":"Technetium Tc 99m decays by isomeric transition, emitting a photon detectable for imaging. Subcutaneous injection leads to entry into lymphatic capillaries and transport to lymph nodes. Intraperitoneal injection results in mixing with peritoneal fluid, and clearance rate assesses shunt patency. Intravenous injection leads to uptake by the reticuloendothelial system (RES). Oral administration is not absorbed, making it useful for esophageal transit studies and detecting pulmonary aspiration."},"_scrapedAt":"2026-03-28T00:10:11.409Z","_scrapedBy":"cloudflare-swarm","_wikipedia":null,"_validation":{"fieldsValidated":4,"lastValidatedAt":"2026-04-20T06:57:54.905112+00:00","fieldsConflicting":0,"overallConfidence":0.95},"indications":{"approved":[{"id":"sulfur-colloid-lymph-node-localization-in-bre","name":"Lymph
