  • Production of non-standard PET radionuclides and the application of radiopharmaceuticals labeled with these nuclides. Abstract Text:

    m j welchM J Welch,r laforestR Laforest,j s lewisJ S Lewis,

    The field of positron emission tomography (PET) has expanded dramatically over recent years. In spite of this expansion the large majority of clinical studies are carried out utilizing one radiopharmaceutical-2-fluoro-2-deoxyglucose. Many research groups are developing novel radiopharmaceuticals. A major emphasis is on other agents labeled with 18F. Several other positron emitting radionuclides can be prepared in high yields in small biomedical cyclotrons. Some of these have half-lives that make delivery significantly easier than the delivery of 18F compounds. These radionuclides include: 64Cu (half life 12.7 h), 76Br (half life 16.2 h), 86Y (half life 14.74 h) and 124I (half life 4.2 days). The method of production of these and other 'non-standard' PET radionuclides will be discussed and the method of labeling radiopharmaceuticals with these radionuclides described. Several of these radiopharmaceuticals have been studied in animal models as well and a limited number translated to the human situation.
