Assessment of radionuclidic impurities in cyclotron produced Tc-99m
Original language description
The commercial viability of cyclotron-produced Tc-99m as an alternative to generator-produced Tc-99m depends on several factors. These include: production yield, ease of target processing and recycling of Mo-100, radiochemical purity, specific activity as well as the presence of other radionuclides, particularly various Tc radioisotopes that cannot be separated chemically and will remain in the final clinical preparation. These Tc radionuclidic impurities are derived from nuclear interactions of the accelerated protons with other stable Mo isotopes present in the enriched Mo-100 target. The aim of our study was to determine experimentally the yields of Tc radioisotopes produced from these stable Mo isotopes as a function of incident beam energy in order to predict radionuclidic purity of Tc-99m produced in highly enriched Mo-100 targets of known isotopic composition.
