“…Nuclear applications have made significant advancements in various areas, including nuclear medicine, beam radiotherapy, and spectroscopy [1]- [4]. Gamma spectroscopy is an analytical technique used to identify radionuclides by analyzing the energy spectrum of emitted gamma radiation [5], [6]. There are three major kinds of detectors utilized for measuring gamma radiation: gas-filled, scintillation, and semiconductor detectors.…”

A HPGe detector was modelled and characterized by means of experimental measurements and Monte Carlo simulations. The simulation based on Monte Carlo GEANT4 was used to characterize the potential dead layer/inactive materials and Full Energy Peak Efficiency (FEPE). The calibration of FEPE for the HPGe detector was conducted in the γ-ray energy range from 88 keV to 1332 keV, using eight standard point sources of gamma radiation: 137Cs, 133Ba, 109Cd, 65Zn, 60Co, 57Co, 54Mn, and 22Na. The efficiency dependence curves were obtained by changing the source to detector distance from 8 cm to 12 cm. a remarkable similarity in FEPE for low energy measurements ranging from 88 keV to 122 keV was obtained between the simulation results and the experimental measurements.

Highly Enriched Uranium-Free Medical Radioisotope Production Methods: An Integrative Review

et al. 2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The ever-growing need for radiopharmaceuticals, i.e., compounds containing pharmaceutical drugs and radioisotopes used for medical diagnostic imaging (SPECT/PET scan) and treating neoplasms, is significantly leading to an increased demand for such substances in hospitals and clinics worldwide. Currently, most large-scale productions of radioisotopes required for radiopharmaceuticals are carried out in research reactors, via the fission of highly enriched uranium. However, because large amounts of radioactive waste are produced as byproducts in this process, new greener methods are needed for radioisotope production. This work presents an integrative literature review and summarizes enriched uranium-free methods for radioisotope production, accomplished through the adoption of new reaction routes, distinct acceleration technologies, or by using other physical processes. This review considered forty-eight studies published from 2010 to 2021 on three established virtual databases. Among these selected works, a cyclotron is the most adopted HEU-free method for radioisotope production, and 44Sc, 68Ga, and 99mTc are the medical radioisotopes most often reported as produced by using the investigated HEU-free production methods.
