About This Document: The authors studied 77 brain tumor patients after surgical excision and radiotherapy; all cases presented with an indication of recurrent tumor (metastasis or glioma) or radiation necrosis on MRI follow-up. On the basis of these reports, we investigated the in vivo imaging properties of ^sup 99m^Tc-TF in tumors of the central nervous system. ^sup 99m^Tc-TF is a tumor-seeking diphosphine that does not cross the intact blood-brain barrier, and uptake of ^sup 99^Tc-TF depends on regional blood flow and cell membrane integrity, thus reflecting cellular metabolic status and viability.
