Abstract:Background
A promising material used in radiation synovectomy of small joints is hydroxyapatite which has been labeled with 177Lu. During the design and production of radiopharmaceuticals, the condition of the radiolabeling process, directly influences the radiochemical yield and consequently the quality of the final product so this process necessitates a precise optimization. In this investigation, central composite design based on response surface methodology and artificial neural networks are applied to bu… Show more
