Abstract:
A method is described for inhibiting the degradation of a diagnostic or radiotherapeutic radiopharmaceutical, especially radiolabeled compounds containing reducible moieties, by including oxidants either as a part of the composition for the preparation of such radiopharmaceuticals, or by adding an oxidant to such compositions immediately after the preparation of such radiopharmaceuticals.
