The invention relates to radiolabeled imaging of a mammalian body. The invention in particular provides for reagents labeled with technetium-99m for such imaging. The invention specifically provides somatostatin, somatostatin derivatives, somatostatin analogues or peptides that bind to the somatostatin receptor and contain at least 2 cysteine residues that form a disulfide or wherein the disulfide is reduced to the sulfhydryl form that are labeled with technetium-99m and that can be targeted to specific sites within a mammalian body for imaging.
