  • Between October 2019 and January 2020, 120EA of a syringe that was equipped with a 3-way injection material and administered 99mTc labeled compound among inpatients for SPECT examination at the Department of Nuclear Medicine at Daegu P Hospital. When using a plastic syringe, the average dosing rate according to the number of dilutions was 99mTc-ECD the highest at 90.87±11.08, and 99mTc-DMSA the lowest at 75.28±7.43. The average dose rate according to the number of dilutions was the highest at 93.58±7.96, and the lowest at 99mTc-DMSA at 91.60±6.07. The independent sample t-test showed whether the difference between the 99mTc-DMSA plastic syringe and the normjek syringe was statistically significant(p<0.01). The 99mTc-DMSA used for radiopharmaceuticals is a radiopharmaceutical that is mainly used for pediatric patients, and it is considered that it is necessary to use a normjek syringe rather than a general plastic syringe because the precise dosage is important.
