Interest in using (68)Ga is rapidly increasing for clinical PET applications due to its favorable imaging characteristics and increased accessibility. The focus of this study was to provide our long-term evaluations of the two TiO(2)-based (68)Ge/(68)Ga generators and develop an optimized automation strategy to synthesize [(68)Ga]DOTATOC by using HEPES as a buffer system. This data will be useful in standardizing the evaluation of (68)Ge/(68)Ga generators and automation strategies to comply with regulatory issues for clinical use.
由于其良好的成像特性和更高的可及性,用于临床正电子发射断层显像(PET)应用的(68)镓的关注度正在迅速增加。本研究的重点是对两种基于二氧化钛的(68)锗/(68)镓发生器进行长期评估,并开发一种优化的自动化策略,以使用4-(2-羟乙基)-1-哌嗪乙磺酸(HEPES)作为缓冲系统来合成[(68)镓]奥曲肽。这些数据将有助于规范(68)锗/(68)镓发生器的评估和自动化策略,以符合临床使用的监管要求。
