The Proton Therapy Facility at TRIUMF is in routine operation treating ocular tumours using 74 MeV protons extracted from the 500 MeV H- cyclotron. Proton therapy results in the activation of the irradiated tissue and provides an opportunity for in-vivo verification via the measurement of irradiation induced activity. The activity distribution resulting from these irradiation induced positron...

22. ISOLTRAP the mass measurement tool of ISOLDE/CERN and its power to enhance the radio isotope production for medical purposes

The ISOLDE facility at CERN provides a wide choice (>1000 different radioisotopes) of mass-separated ion beams. These serve a variety of disciplines, including radiochemistry, radiobiology and preclinical studies for nuclear medicine. Recently the quadruplet of terbium (Tb) isotopes covering all modalities of nuclear medicine gained considerable interest [1]. Neutron-deficient lanthanide...
