In the context of radiopharmacy and molecular imaging, concept theranostics entails a therapy-accompanying diagnosis with aim patient-specific treatment. Using adequate diagnostic radiopharmaceutical, disease state are verified for an individual patient. The other way around, it verifies that radiopharmaceutical in hand represents target-specific selective molecule: “best one” Transforming imaging into quantitative dosimetric information, optimum radioactivity (expressed maximum radiation...
Abstract Medical radionuclide production technology is well established. Both reactors and cyclotrons are utilized for production; the positron emitters, however, produced exclusively using cyclotrons. A brief survey of methods most commonly used diagnostic therapeutic radionuclides given. The emerging considered in more detail. They comprise novel emitters emitting low-range electrons α-particles. possible alternative routes a few established radionuclides, like 68 Ga 99m Tc, discussed....
The nuclear data required for the production and endotherapeutic application of radionuclides are outlined. three types therapeutic radionuclides, viz. β - -emitters, α-emitters Auger electron emitters, considered role some + -emitters in therapy planning is discussed. status available reviewed.
Article Excitation Functions of (p,xn)-Reactions on natNi and Highly Enriched 62Ni: Possibility Production Medically Important Radioisotope 62Cu at a Small Cyclotron was published February 1, 1992 in the journal Radiochimica Acta (volume 57, issue 1).
Abstract Alpha particles exhibit three important characteristics: scattering, ionisation and activation. This article briefly discusses those properties outlines their major applications. Among others, α -particles are used in elemental analysis, investigation improvement of materials properties, nuclear reaction studies medical radionuclide production. The latter two topics, dealing with activation target materials, treated some detail this paper. Measurements excitation functions -particle...
Abstract Extensive nuclear data studies have been carried out over the last 30 years in context of accelerator-based production radionuclides, especially at energies below MeV, and achieved database is fairly good. Yet there are some deficiencies or new needs data. Those generally associated with emerging clinical applications e.g. theranostic approach, bimodal imaging, radioimmuno-therapy, etc. This article gives an overview on-going research utilizing charged-particle accelerators four...
The relatively long-lived positron emitters 64 Cu ( t 1/2 = 12.7 h), 76 Br 16.2 h) and 124 I 4.18 d) are finding increasing applications in emission tomography (PET). For precise determination of their intensities, each radionuclide was prepared via a charged particle induced reaction “no-carrier-added” form with high radionuclidic purity. It then subjected to γ -ray X-ray spectroscopy as well anticoincidence beta γγ -coincidence counting. intensities measured were: (17.8 ± 0.4)%, (58.2...
Abstract In molecular imaging, the importance of novel longer lived positron emitters, also termed as non-standard or innovative PET radionuclides, has been constantly increasing, especially because they allow studies on slow metabolic processes and in some cases furnish possibility quantification radiation dose internal radiotherapy. Considerable efforts have invested worldwide about 25 emitters developed. Those relate to interdisciplinary dealing with basic nuclear data, high current...
Abstract A very brief overview of the hitherto investigated production routes 86g Y is given, and a comparative analysis its via two low-energy reactions, namely (p,n) (d,2n) on 96.4 % enriched 86 Sr as target material, presented. Based our recent cross-section measurements, calculated yields reactions were compared, levels co-produced isotopic impurities estimated. At medical cyclotrons ( E p < 20 MeV; d 10 MeV) use reaction superior, both in terms yield radionuclidic impurities....
