In this chapter, we present the methods developed in our lab for the scintigraphic imaging and direct quantitative evaluation of proteoglycan (PG) distribution in vivo. These methods relate to (1) the synthesis and radiolabeling of the NTP 15-5 with 99m Tc, (2) preclinical scintigraphic imaging using laboratory animals, and (3) quantitative analysis of scintigraphic images.
