Radiochemistry Lab

The Radiochemistry Lab is located adjacent to MIP on the 8th floor (rooms 8304 and 8303). The lab performs all radiosynthesis and quality control as well as in-vitro and in-vivo evaluation.

Lead-shielded hoods and cells

• Flow hood and mini-cell with 2 inch lead to operate high-energy radioisotopes (^18F and ^64Cu)
• Shielded Fume hood is for small amount of low-energy radioisotopes such as ^111In and ^99mTc

Reaction devices

• Automated PET Synthesizer with integrated HPLC purification can be programmed to perform one or two reactions automatically, varying from mCi to Ci of ^18F
• Microwave system is for efficient radiometal complexation and manual ^18F-chemistry
