  1. Contents of the pack and further information

1. What MAG3 Technescan is and what it is used for

This medicine is for diagnostic use only.

MAG3 Technescan is used with a gamma camera to examine:

  • the kidneys
  • urine production
  • the bladder

This medicine is a powder. When qualified persons mix it with a solution of a radioactive substance, sodium pertechnetate (99mTc), it forms technetium (99mTc) mertiatide. When injected into the body, it accumulates in certain organs, such as the kidneys.

The radioactive substance can be photographed from outside the body using special cameras that produce a scintigram. This scintigram shows the distribution of radioactivity within the organ and the body. It also provides the doctor with valuable information about the structure and function of the organ.

Administration of MAG3 Technescan in combination with sodium pertechnetate (99mTc) involves receiving a small amount of radioactivity. Your nuclear medicine doctor has considered that the clinical benefit you will obtain from the procedure with the radiopharmaceutical outweighs the risk of radiation.

2. What you need to know before using MAG3 Technescan

Pregnancy and breast-feeding

If you are pregnant or breast-feeding, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant, consult your nuclear medicine doctor before this medicine is administered to you.

You must inform your nuclear medicine doctor before administration of MAG3 Technescan if there is any possibility that you may be pregnant, if you have a delayed period, or if you are breast-feeding. In case of doubt, it is important that you consult your nuclear medicine doctor, who will supervise the procedure.

If you are pregnant

Your nuclear medicine doctor will only administer this medicine during pregnancy if the expected benefit outweighs the risk.
