- F-18 production by means of 20Ne(d,4He) reaction at ININ R. Policroniades E. Moreno A. Varela G. Murillo A. Huerta Ma. E. Ortiz E. Chávez Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas Radioisotope production positron emission tomography Fluor-18 is one of the most useful radioisotopes for positron emission tomography (PET), so the means to produce and process it turns out to be of great importance. In order to test the feasibility to produce this tracer in our laboratory at ININ, provided with an EN-tandem accelerator, we constructed a gas cell to contain a Ne gas target and bombard it with 6.5 MeV deuterons. In this work we report the production of some mCi of F-18 obtained through the 20Ne(d,4He)18F reaction, the experimental setup employed, with some practical implications related to the use of the alternative 18O(p,n)18F reaction. 2008 artículo científico 0035-001X https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=57019064011 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=570 Revista Mexicana de Física application/pdf Sociedad Mexicana de Física A.C.
