Mono‐DPTA‐ethyleneglycol‐Ga‐deuteroporphyrin (MDEGD) was synthesized, by coordinating non‐radioactive Ga in the porphyrin ring and connecting DTPA (diethylene‐triamine‐N,N,N,N,N,‐pentaacetic acid) to its side chain. By labeling with 111In, chemicals for scintigraphy were developed. They were applied to Syrian golden hamsters with implanted pancreatic gland cancers and C57‐black mice with Lewis lung cancer to enable tumor imaging and biodistribution examination. A comparative study was also conducted with [67Ga]citrate. In the resultant data, [111In]MDEGD showed larger tumor/lung, tumor/kidney and tumor/blood ratio with [67Ga]citrate. The affinity of [nIn]MDEGD in inflammatory tissue was much lower than that of 67Ga citrate. [111In]MDEGD lost its photosensitivity.
