pubmed:abstractText |
The use of (99m)Tc-ciprofloxacin as a tracer for infection and inflammation has been examined and discussed in the literature extensively. Its alleged ability to discriminate between sterile inflammation and bacterial versus nonbacterial infections has led to an intense debate. Other labeled fluoroquinolones might offer better characteristics or may add to a better understanding of the working mechanism of (99m)Tc-ciprofloxacin. The rationale of this work was to determine possible differences in the use of 2 labeled quinolones--that is, (99m)Tc-ciprofloxacin and (99m)Tc-enrofloxacin--as tracers for infection and inflammation in animals.
