Abstract

Molybdenum-99 is a parent of diagnostic nuclear medicine. It decays to technetium-99m, which used in over 30 million investigations per year around the world. Supplies of Tc-99m remained fragile in the last few years, which may occur again in the short and long term. Few suggestions have been registered in this letter to cope inadequate supply of the most wanted radionuclide for patient care.

摘要

钼-99 是诊断核医学的母核。它衰变生成锝-99m，后者每年在全球范围内用于 3000 多万次检查。在过去几年中，Tc-99m 的供应一直很脆弱，这种情况在短期内和长期内都可能再次发生。在这封信中，我们提出了一些建议，以应对用于患者治疗的最受欢迎放射性核素的供应不足问题。
