Han, S., et al. - Radio-labelled Aprotinin has been shown to bind with amyloid fibrils in vitro as well as in vivo. The aim was to test the usefulness of 99mTc-Aprotinin imaging in systemic amyloidosis...Conclusion: 99mTc-Aprotinin imaging may be a useful non-invasive method for the assessment of the presence and extent of extra-abdominal amyloid, particularly cardiac amyloidosis. It has little role in diagnosis of amyloidosis involving the oro-facial and abdominal structures
