Technetium (99mTc) tilmanocept, trade name Lymphoseek, is a radiopharmaceutical diagnostic imaging agent used to locate lymph nodes which may be draining from tumors, and assist doctors in locating lymph nodes for removal during surgery.[6]

The most common side effects identified in clinical trials was pain or irritation at the injection site.[7]

It was approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in March 2013, for the imaging of lymph nodes.[4][7]
