Description

This survey was performed in order to investigate the incidence of adverse reactions to radiopharmaceuticals in FY2005 in Japan. It was based on responses to questionnaires sent to nuclear medicine institutions. The reply was obtained from 1,007 institutions among 1,243 to which the questionnaire had been sent. Nineteen cases of adverse reactions were reported. A total of 1,264,098 radiopharmaceutical administrations was reported. The incidence of adverse reactions per 100,000 cases was 1.5. Three cases of defect products were reported, and the incidence of defect products per 100,000 cases was 0.2. (author)
