Since the introduction of radioiodinated m-iodobenzylguanidine in 1980
, much research has been performed, both in the chemical field as well
as in medical sciences. This paper reviews the synthesis, radiolabell
ing and stability of radioiodinated m-iodobenzylguanidine. Regarding t
he many radiolabelling procedures for m-iodobenzylguanidine, the Cu1+-
assisted nucleophilic exchange radioiodination can be considered as th
e method of first choice. Quality control of the radiopharmaceutical p
roduct is discussed and attention is paid to recent studies regarding
the radiochemical stability of iodine-131 labelled m-iodobenzylguanidi
ne.
