We investigated a correlation between the expression of human sodium iodide symporter (hNIS) mRNA and the uptake of 99mTc-pertechnetate in 25 breast tumors. 99mTc-pertechnetate scintigraphy revealed positive uptake in 4 patients. The normalized mRNA expression of hNIS was higher in tumors with positive uptake on the scintigraphy (n=4, median 0.97, range 0.78-1.27) than that in negative uptake tumors (n=21, median 0.46, range 0.10-1.03, p < 0.005). 99mTc-pertechnetate uptake is correlated with the hNIS expression in the breast tumor.
