[199Tl chloride in the experimental assessment of myocardial perfusion. 2]

Pharmacokinetic and scintigraphic studies on 199Tl were conducted. Pharmacokinetic characteristics of 199Tl chloride give an opportunity to use it for perfusion scintigraphy of the myocardium which is no inferior in the resolving power to 201T1. The shorter half-life of 199Tl will make it possible to reduce radiation exposure of an examinee.
