Abstract

Cationic 81, 82 m Rb was produced via ( p, xn) reactions with E p = 32 → 16 MeV on Kr in >99.95% radionuclidic purity at a EOB + 3 h combined production rate of 17.3 mCi/μAh. The 81, 82 m Rb was evaluated in dogs as a myocardial perfusion agent in combination with quantitative positron emission transaxial tomography, and with a planar positron camera for focal plane tomography. The 81, 82 m Rb radionuclides are promising substitutes for 38K + at institutions which do not have an on-site accelerator.
