• Application of 99mTc-Hepatobida has turned out to be a convenient diagnostic screening method in liver and biliary disease. Side effects are unknown, thus patients with iodine allergy or other forms of allergy, as well as patients harboring autonomous adenomata of the thyroid, and severely ill patients will tolerate this substance well. 99mTc-Hepatobida may be applied even in the presence of highly elevated levels of plasma bilirubin and thus will yield diagnostic results in all forms of hepatic disease if findings are monitored repeatedly. In addition screening with 99mTc-Hepatobida will in some cases suffice to establish the diagnosis and thus forgo more complicated diagnostic procedures.
