- The use of ISOL method for radionuclides production is proposed.
- ISOL method allows to produce carrier-free radionuclides for nuclear medicine.
- Tests with stable ion beams were produced as a proof of concept.
- Sodium Chloride is suitable as material for targets for Sr and Y beams.
- Activated Carbon can be compacted with PVA to have a solid target for I2 beams.
Radiopharmaceuticals represent a fundamental tool for nuclear medicine procedures, both for diagnostic and therapeutic purposes. The present work aims to explore the Isotope Separation On-Line (ISOL) technique for the production of carrier-free radionuclides for nuclear medicine at SPES, a nuclear physics facility under construction at INFN-LNL. Stable ion beams of strontium, yttrium and iodine were produced using the SPES test bench (Front-End) to simulate the production of 89Sr, 90Y, 125I and 131I and collected with good efficiency on suitable targets.
