The common image of handling radioactivity takes us back to an operator who works outside a large shielded hot cell, fiddling with telepliers to prepare “bulk” molybden-99 solutions and Moly generators to be distributed worldwide. Also, the preparation of technetium-99m labeled radiopharmaceuticals (RPs), that represented for several decades the workhorse of nuclear medicine, has long been (and still is) mostly performed manually.

Abstract
The common image of handling radioactivity takes us back to an operator who works outside a large shielded hot cell, fiddling with telepliers to prepare “bulk” molybden-99 solutions and Moly generators to be distributed worldwide. Also, the preparation of technetium-99m labeled radiopharmaceuticals (RPs), that represented for several decades the workhorse of nuclear medicine, has long been (and still is) mostly performed manually.File in questo prodotto:
