Excretion of radionuclides in human breast milk following administration of 125I-fibrinogen, 99Tc/sup m/-MAA and 51Cr-EDTA

Very few biokinetic and dosimetric data for estimating the absorbed dose to a breast-feeding child are available in the literature. The few available are usually case reports. We have measured the activity concentration in breast milk from one patient after administration of 125I-fibrinogen, from two patients after administration of 99Tc/sup m/-macroaggregated albumin, and from one patient after administration of 51Cr-EDTA. We have compared our data with earlier published results and estimated the absorbed dose to the breast-feeding child using biokinetic data presented in this work and recently published S-values for new-born children
