[Scintillography using tensio-active pulmonary iodine-131 (surfactant I-131)].
Using 200 microCuries of surfactant iodine 131, for the first time in the world, we took surfactant scan in 2 patient with hyaline membranes and compared with normal images. No intolerance, or radiotoxicity was found 3 months of clinical follow-up of the subjects. The results are very encouraging; a great variety of clinical situations, including hyaline membrane, can be now examinated with this new technic and radiocompound and given new perspectives in its study and diagnoses and through knowledge of its pathophysiology.
