AUTOMATIC PROCESS PLATFORM FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ASTATINE-211 [At-211]-RADIOPHARMACEUTICALS

摘要

A system and method for automatic production of astatine-211labeled molecules is described. The invention represents a significant advantage in the preparation of At-211 radiopharmaceuticals including better reproducibility, reduced production time and increased radiation safety. The invention also enables routine automatic synthesis of radiopharmaceuticals in a clinical setting, in conjunction or at short distance from a cyclotron unit capable of producing the radionuclide.
