title: Autoradiographic studies of distribution in the stomach of 99mTc-pertechnetate.
abstract: The histological and cytological distribution of 99mTc-pertechnetate in animal stomachs was studied by autoradiography. Unlike halogens, technetium is handled predominantly by the gastric surface mucosal cells. The parietal and chief cells have little or no role in the gastric secretion of Tc-pertechnetate.
