Popis: | The present work illustrates the feasibility of production and supply of ready-to-use gallium-68 (68Ga) radiopharmaceuticals, similar to [18F]FDG, through a centralized production facility. The supply logistic from centralized facility to various imaging centers situated within the radius of 50 km was investigated using germanium-68/gallium-68 generator system of fixed (1.85 GBq) capacity. However, the logistics discussed and conclusion drawn can be definitely extrapolated to many other 68Ga radiopharmaceuticals, where the 68Ga radioisotope used is produced via direct cyclotron route. |
