Production, automatic delivery and bolus injection of [ 15O]water for positron emission tomography studies

An automatic system allowing repetitive bolus injection of oxygen-15-labeled water for PET studies is described in this report. The production of this radiopharmaceutical by the 16O( p,pn) 15O nuclear reaction on H 2 16O, its purification and delivery nearby the PET camera, the injection system, and...

Zusammenfassung:	An automatic system allowing repetitive bolus injection of oxygen-15-labeled water for PET studies is described in this report. The production of this radiopharmaceutical by the 16O( p,pn) 15O nuclear reaction on H 2 16O, its purification and delivery nearby the PET camera, the injection system, and the quality controls are presented.
