Popis: [ 18 F]Fluoride was produced via the 18 O (p, n) 18 F reaction using a low volume stainless steel 18 O-water target in a small cyclotron. The average 18 F production rate for 60 runs was about 720 μCi/μA-min. A typical bombardment time of 20 min produced 120 mCi of 18 F-fluoride. [ 18 F]2-Fluoro-2-deoxy- d -glucose ([ 18 F]2FDG) was prepared using the procedure developed by Tewson [ J. Nucl. Med. 24 , 718 (1983)] involving a protected cyclic sulfate glucose derivative as precursor. The routine synthesis and quality testing of [ 18 F]2FDG required 1 h and, typically, yields of 30–35 mCi of > 95% HPLC-pure product were obtained.
