QV09FX<br />
Various thyroid diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals<br />
Technetium-pertechnetate used for the scintigraphy of salivary glands and Meckels<br />
diverticulum is classified in this group. Technetium-pentavalent succimer used in<br />
medullary thyroid carcinoma is classified in QV09I - Tumour detection. Sodium<br />
iodide ( 131 I) in low dose is classified here. Sodium iodide ( 131 I) in high dose for<br />
