Abstract
The present invention relates to stable pharmaceutical compositions of sulfur colloid, which advantageously provide a high radiochemical purity to 99mTc-pertechnetate without causing the gel formation. The compositions include pre-lyophilized and lyophilized compositions of sulfur colloid. It also relates to a non-radioactive kit which upon reconstitution with 99mTc-pertechnetate solution gives stabilized 99mmTc-Sulfur colloid radiopharmaceutical composition. Further, the process for preparation of said compositions and their use for diagnostic purposes are also disclosed.
