The objective of medical imaging using molecular probes and perfusion radiotracers is to
provide rapid, noninvasive evaluation of physiology, pathology, and/or organ function. The …

The production of reactor-based medical isotopes is fragile, which has meant supply
shortages from time to time. This paper reviews alternative production methods in the form of …

A brief review has been made of the uses of radioisotopes of gallium and recent reports of
tumour scanning with 67Ga citrate. In our own work 25 patients have been scanned 48–72 …

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the clinically useful chelators of tripositive
elements. The clinical use of chelator molecules has been synonymous with the removal of …

Positron emission tomography (PET) is a medical diagnostic imaging technique that
requires administration of a β+-emitting radiotracer to a patient. Metal-based PET …

Particle accelerators have proliferated by leaps and bounds in both numbers and types.
Very large new accelerators are being designed and built for high-energy physics but, large …

On the basis of the present experimental work and available literature results, we have
evaluated the cross section/integral thick target physical yield data for 66Zn (p, x) 65Zn …

Background As the demand for 68 Ga continues to grow, there is increasing interest in
single-to-multi-Curie production quantities of both [68 Ga] GaCl 3 and tracers such as [68 …

There are no compounds known to exist naturally in the human body which involve gallium
or indium metal cofactors. In spite of this numerous compounds which contain 67 Ga and …

The excitation functions for the production of 66 Ga and some other radionuclides produced
by the 4 He-particle bombardment of a natural copper target have been measured up to 31 …
