Labelling and Clinical Performance of Human Leukocytes Labelled with ^99mTc-HMPAO Using Leukokit® with Gelofusine versus Leukokit® with HES as Sedimentation Agent

Table 2

Values of recovered blood elements after erythrocyte sedimentation with HES, Gelofusine, or control (before). The analysis was repeated after granulocyte purification by centrifugation.
