Abstract
The preparation of radiopharmaceuticals using stannous chloride has acquired an ever increasing importance. The applicability to a great number of compounds constitutes the basis of interest. The possibility of preparing kits has added to the desirable properties. The stannous ion is a powerful reducing agent, it posseses the quality of coprecipitating with numerous elements and favours the formation of many complexes of relatively low toxicity. The present outline is a panoramic appreciation of the radiopharmaceuticals prepared with the aid of stannous chloride, some brief considerations on quality control have found their way into this exposition.
