WE USE: Our team utilizes a proton linear accelerator (PULSAR®) manufactured by AccSys Technology, Inc. of Pleasanton, CA, a Hitachi Company. AMIC has targeted this compact isotope production system as our initial differentiated technology. The compact LINAC PET Isotope Production systems (PULSAR®) are proton accelerators replace large and demanding cyclotron systems for the production of positron emitting isotopes. Large amounts of fluorine-18, carbon-11, nitrogen-13, and oxygen-15 can be produced for synthesis into compounds used in oncology, cardiology, neurology, and molecular imaging. The radio-labeled glucose analog, F-18 FDG, can be synthesized and distributed for use in Positron Emission Tomography. SINGULARLY EFFECTIVE: No other compact proton accelerator in North America has sufficient flexibility to produce the full spectrum of PET imaging radioisotopes, as well as other high-demand isotopes, both short and long lived, for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. |
