Excretion of technetium in human milk
1979
Pittard, W.B. | Bill, Kathleen | Fletcher, B.D.
Information on the problem of contamination of human milk by radiopharmaceuticals used in scanning procedures is reported. A breast-feeding mother needing a brain scan was studied to measure the appearance and rate of disappearance of radioactivity in the milk. Radioactivity from technitium administration was less than that reported for iodide 131. Data indicates that an infant will receive minimal radiation exposure (less than that from natural sources in the same period) if breast-fed 48 hours after the mother's dosage.
