  • Patent number: 9291606
    Abstract: A quality control (“QC”) system for PET or SPECT radiopharmaceuticals is disclosed that contains a disposable, no-leakage, self-contained QC cassette, which interfaces with the QC system. The QC system may include a shield that substantially surrounds the cassette such that the area and the cassette are both shielded. The QC cassette may contain shielding also. The QC cassette contains components for conducting one or more QC tests. These components include sensor and devices for performing various QC tests on radiopharmaceuticals. The QC system may contain a number of sub-systems and devices for supporting the QC tests. The QC system may produce a QC report containing the test results.

  • Publication number: 20110094619
    Abstract: The present invention provides a dispenser cassette (110) which provides at least one product dispense vial (122) to be filled. The cassette provides a filtrate conduit (128) extending between the dispense vial and a filter unit (116) so that flowpath (120) of the filtrate conduit and the dispense vial is provided and maintained as an environmentally-controlled, or GMP-compliant, volume. The resulting product dispensed into the dispense vial is thus dispensed in a GMP-compliant environment.
