Radionuclide impurities in [F-18]F- and [F-18]FDG for positron emission tomography
Koehler, M.; Degering, D.; Zessin, J.; Fuechtner, F.; Konheiser, J.
The paper describes radionuclide impurities (gamma-emitters and H-3) in proton irradiated O-18 enriched water from an Nb target vessel with Nb entrance window, their distribution in different synthesis steps and finally in the PET radiopharmaceuticals [F-18]Fluoride and [F-18]FDG.
