Medical use of baby cyclotron
Description
Baby cyclotron established at Nakano Hospital of National Sanatorium and its building were introduced. Production of compounds labelled with 11C, 13N, 15O, or 18F and the plan of medical use of accelerator isotopes were described. The usefulness of positron nuclear medicine and problems in its clinical use for the lung, the heart, the brain, and cancer were also described. Finally, measuring method of labelled compounds was introduced. (Tsunoda, M.)
