Distribution of radioactive iodine labeled sodium mercaptododecaborate in vivo in mice with melanoma B-16

The distribution of sodium mercaptododecaborate labeled with radioactive iodine (131I-BSH) in the organism of mice with melanoma B-16 was studied with the aid of a gamma camera. The 131I-BSH distribution in the whole organism coincides with that of its unlabeled analog. This result facilitates the solution of problems related to the planning and monitoring of boron neutron capture therapy.
