The continuing rapid expansion of 99mTc diagnostic agents always calls for scaling up
99mTc production to cover increasing clinical demand. Nevertheless, 99mTc availability …

Since the first tracer study by George C. de Hevesy in 1923, in which he used the tracer
principle to study the absorption and translocation of lead nitrate with Pb-212 (1) …

The availability of 99mTc for single-photon imaging in diagnostic nuclear medicine is crucial,
and current availability is based on the 99Mo/99mTc generator fabricated from fission-based …

The interest in 2D materials continues to grow across numerous scientific disciplines as
compounds with unique electrical, optical, chemical, and thermal characteristics are being …

INTRODUCTION: The cyclotron-based 100Mo (p, 2n) 99mTc transformation has been
proposed as a viable alternative to the reactor based 235U (n, f) 99Mo→ 99mTc strategy for …

Excitation functions were calculated by the code TALYS for 10 proton-induced reactions on
100 Mo. For 100 Mo (p, d+ pn) 99 Mo and 100 Mo (p, 2n) 99m Tc, calculations were also …

Medical radionuclide production technology is well established. Both reactors and
cyclotrons are utilized for production; the positron emitters, however, are produced …

This book is the product of a congressionally mandated study to examine the feasibility of
eliminating the use of highly enriched uranium (HEU2) in reactor fuel, reactor targets, and …

99mTc is currently produced by an aging fleet of nuclear reactors, which require enriched
uranium and generate nuclear waste. We report the development of a comprehensive …

An extensive series of evaluations have been performed as part of an IAEA coordinated
research project to study a set of nuclear reactions that produce the diagnostic gamma-ray …
