Purpose.124I has a half‐life of 4.2 days, which makes it suitable for imaging over several days over its uptake and washout phases. However, it has a low positron branching ratio (23%), because of prompt gamma coincidence due to high‐energy γ‐photons (602 to 1,691 keV), which are emitted in cascade with positrons. Methods.

At Legnaro laboratories of the Italian National Institute for Nuclear Physics (INFN), a feasibility study has started since 2011 related to accelerated‐based direct production of 99mTc by the 100Mo(p,2n) 99mTc reaction. Both theoretical investigations and some recent preliminary irradiation tests on 100Mo‐enriched samples have pointed out that both the
