SymbolTcA silvery-gray, radioactive metallic element. It was the first element to be artificially made, and it is produced naturally in extremely small amounts during the radioactive decay of uranium. Technetium is used to remove corrosion from steel.Atomic number43. SeePeriodic Table. ...
Technetium’s existence was first predicted by Russian chemist Dmitri Mendeleev, creator of the periodic table. He realized there was a gap in the group 7 transition elements between manganese and ruthenium, and called the element eka-manganese.(2) In 1925, in Berlin, Germany, Ida Tacke, Walte...
Tc-99m HMPAO–labeled leukocytes have some advantages over In-111-labeled leukocytes (seeTable 15.1). The radiation dose to the patient is considerably lower (see the Appendix); thus, greater activity can be administered, resulting in higher photon yield and better image quality. ...
Owing to its position in the middle of the periodic table, the chemistry of this element has already proven rich, even when limited to aqueous solution. Subtle chemical differences often control the relative stabilities of the various oxidation states and each oxidation state exhibits more than one...
The radioisotope technetium-99m, with a half-life of six hours, is used in radiotherapy. Symbol: Tc; atomic no: 43; half-life of most stable isotope, 97 Tc: 2.6 × 10 6 years; valency: 0, 2, 4, 5, 6, or 7; relative density: 11.50 (calculated); melting pt: 2204°C; boiling...
technetium (Tc), chemical element, synthetic radioactive metal of Group 7 (VIIb) of the periodic table, the first element to be artificially produced. The isotope technetium-97 (4,210,000-year half-life) was discovered (1937) by the Italian mineralogist Carlo Perrier and the Italian-born ...
Significance of secondary ion mass spectrometry microscopy for technetium-99m mapping in leukocytes. Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) microscopy is the only method potentially capable of mapping all the elements in the periodic table including stable and radioactive isotopes. We used this method ...

Technetium, with atomic number Z = 43, is the lowest-numbered element in the periodic table for which all isotopes are radioactive. The second-lightest exclusively radioactive element, promethium, has atomic number 61.[32] Atomic nuclei with an odd number of protons are less stable than those...
