Sodium 3-[[[2-(2-methyl-5-nitro-1H-imidazol-1-yl)ethyl]-amino]carbonyl]-2-pyridin ecarboxylic acid and related compounds which are labeled with radioactive technetium-99m are described as well as their preparations. These novel complexes are useful by reason of their utility as radiopharmaceutical imaging agents. Particularly, these complexes are useful as gallbladder and liver imaging agents.
