Thispaper deals with its behavior in animals. Biodistribution studies on rats demonstrate that~(153)Sm-EDTMP has a high skeletal uptake(bonic peak value 63. 04%±8. 10%at 3h post-injec-tion),a long term retention in bone(over 4 days)but a much lower uptake of liver and othersoft-tissues. The blood clearance of ~(153)Sm-EDTMP iS faster than that of both ~(99)Tc~m-MDP(methylene diphosphonic acid ) and ~(99)Tc~m-PYP(pyrophosphonic acid),which have been widelyused as bone scaning agents in clinic.It's imaging in rabbits is execllent,comparing favorably withthat of ~(99)Tc~m-MDP. No toxicity is observed when ~(153)Sm-EDTMP is injected in mice with a dosageup to 11. 1 GBq/kg,60 times of that of a 50kg patient.The ratio of the lesion to the normal bonein mice is 12.4(ranging from 8. 6 to 15. 5). The above experimental results on animals providethe scientific basis for treating bone tumor in human beings with ~(153)Sm-EDTMP.Key words Bone tumor therapeutic agents ~(153)Sm-EDTMP BiodistributionBlood clearance Bone image
