Organometallic fluorine-18 bonds in 18F-radiochemistry [PDF]
Fluorine-18 is by far the most widely exploited radionuclide in PET (positron emission tomography) radiochemistry. The physical half-life of fluorine-18 allows for chemical manipulation within a restricted timeframe, and cyclotron-produced fluoride ion

18FDG production in a PET imaging using a proton flux produced by D-D fusion reaction
Fluorine 18-deoxyglucose (18FDG) is often used in Positron Emission Tomography (PET). PET imaging is one of the useful tool which is used to cancer detection and management. PET growth is limited due to problems that depend on the production of Fluorine-

Production of fluorine-18 from reactor-irradiated lithium compounds [PDF]
Existing methods of separating fluorine-18 produced in reactor-irradiated lithium compounds are reviewed. Direct distillation of fluorine-18 from acidified lithium solutions and absorption with the minimum of condensation is shown to be the most ...
