Support for Nuclear Medicine and Radiotherapy
The Radioisotope Physics Group provides the scientific support for Nuclear Medicine Imaging and Biologically Targeted Therapy. This includes the production and QC of radiopharmaceuticals, gamma camera QC and support for planar and dynamic scintigraphy, SPECT and PET, data analysis, therapy administration, radiation protection, monitoring and dosimetry.
Research
Radioisotope imaging provides essential in-vivo physiological information which can be used for diagnosis, radionuclide therapy treatment planning and dosimetry, anti-cancer drug evaluation and the assessment of treatment efficacy. Our radioisotope research is divided into the four sub-sections of detector development, quantitative imaging methodology, radiopharmaceutical development/evaluation and clinical applications in diagnosis and therapy.
