Abstract: Described herein is a compact cyclotron solid target for radionuclide production. In contrast to other cyclotron solid targets, the compact cyclotron solid target described herein utilizes liquid (e.g., water) cooling flow (in and out) from the front of the target, which clears the back of the solid target of any hanging tubing and connectors which may block load-release the target easily. Having water cool the target from the front considerably reduces the size of the whole solid target mechanism.

Abstract: An exemplary storage arrangement can be provided, which can include a first section and a second section. The first section can be moveable between a first configuration and a second configuration and can have at least one slot. The second section can be coupled to the first section and comprising at least one protrusion configured and dimensioned to mate with the slot(s) to facilitate movement of the first section. In the exemplary storage arrangement, the space formed by the first and second sections can receive a portable transportation arrangement, and at least one of the first section or the second section can be coupled to a configuration provided at or near a patient. Alternatively or in addition, the exemplary storage arrangement can include a locking mechanism which can be configured to secure at least one portion of the first section to the second section.
