What is the brand name of Tc mebrofenin?

• A. Choletec
• B. Hepatolite
• C. Technescan
• D. Brenoscan

Answer: (A)

The brand name of Tc mebrofenin is Choletec. This radiopharmaceutical is primarily used in hepatobiliary imaging to evaluate the function of the liver and biliary tract. Choletec contains the technetium-99m labeled compound mebrofenin, which allows for visualization of hepatobiliary dynamics through imaging techniques such as SPECT.

Other choices represent different radiopharmaceuticals or products. For instance, Hepatolite is associated with another agent used for similar diagnostic purposes but contains a different active ingredient. Technescan is a brand name that refers to a range of technetium-based imaging agents, but does not specifically correspond to mebrofenin. Brenoscan is also a different product used in nuclear medicine but not the brand name for Tc mebrofenin. Thus, Choletec is the correct brand name, specifically linked to the use of Tc mebrofenin for imaging applications.
