Figure 5. Whole-body imaging.

Figure 5

Shown are whole-body planar scans before (preinjection) and 3 days after (post-injection) the adenovirus injection for patient 7. Activity in the salivary glands (Sal), lachrymal glands (Lac), thyroid gland, and stomach is due to endogenous human sodium iodide symporter expression. The activity observed in the penis (Pen) and testicles (Tes) is due to blood flow through those structures. Na99mTcO4 is secreted through the urinary tract, accounting for the activity in the urinary bladder. The intravenous 99mTcO4 injection site can be seen in the post-injection scan.
