YTTRIUM-90 PRODUCTION SYSTEM AND METHOD |
| 摘要 |
A method of producing the therapeutic medical isotope yttrium-90 (Y-90) is provided that includes providing a zirconium target composed at least partially of Zr-90, directing an electron beam onto a high-Z converter to generate a neutron beam having a maximum energy level of 12.1 MeV, and directing the neutron beam onto the zirconium target to isotopically convert at least a portion of the Zr-90 to the Y-90 medical isotope. |

1. A method of producing Y-90 by an isotopic conversion reaction comprising:
providing a zirconium target comprising Zr-90; directing an electron beam onto a high-Z converter to generate a neutron beam having a maximum energy level below the threshold of a Zr-90(n,2n)Zr-89 reaction; and directing the neutron beam onto said zirconium target to isotopically convert at least a portion of said Zr-90 to a Y-90 isotope. |
