A novel diphosphonic acid, 1‐hydroxy‐2‐(1‐ethyl‐imidazol‐2‐yl) ethane‐1,1‐diphosphonic acid (HEIDP), was prepared and labeled with 99m Tc in a high labeling yield under optimized labeling conditions. The biodistribution in mice shows that 99m Tc‐HEIDP has high specificity and efficacy in bone and joint uptake with 5.73 and 9.93%ID/g at 5 min, which increases continuously to a maximum of 7.62 and 18.0%ID/g at 30 min, respectively. Kinetics of blood clearance showed that distribution half‐life ( T 1/2α ) and elimination half‐life ( T 1/2β ) of 99m Tc‐HEIDP were 9.91 and 81.1 min, respectively. The total clearance rate was 1.94%ID/g•min ‐1 . A plain and clear bone image was obtained at 1 h by using single photon emission computed tomography. All results indicate that 99m Tc‐HEIDP holds potential as a superior tracer agent for bone scanning. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
