Abstract

Radioisotopes have been widely used in various life science researches such as medicine and agriculture. We have produced useful radioisotopes for the abovementioned purposes, including positron-emitting copper-64 and bromine-76, and alpha-emitting astatine-211, by using an AVF cyclotron in QST-Takasaki. The author describes the outline of research on production (irradiation and isolation), labeling method, and imaging or therapeutic studies of these useful radionuclides.
