Easy fast PET chemistry
Description
PET radiopharmaceutical chemists are continually stressed by the dichotomy between the ever increasing complexity of radiopharmaceuticals demanded of them vs. the unrelenting physical constraints of short half-life and high annihilation gamma energy inherent in these positron emitting isotopes. This paper is dedicated to those who have approached this challenge with cleverness, innovation and a smile. Areas to be discussed will include development and uses of precursors, radiochemistry with very short-lived isotopes (T1/2 ≤ 2 min) and physical/mechanical approaches to meeting synthetic demands
