Medium to large scale radioisotope production for targeted radiotherapy using a small PET cyclotron
Abstract
In recent years the use of radionuclides in targeted cancer therapy has increased. In this study we have developed a high-current solid target system and demonstrated that by the use of a typical low-energy medical cyclotron, it is possible to produce tens of GBq's of many unconventional radionuclides relevant for cancer therapy such as 64Cu and 119Sb locally at the hospitals.
