TL;DR: An outline of some cyclotron-based irradiation techniques that can be used to directly radiolabel industrially manufactured nanoparticles, as well as two techniques for synthesis of labelled nanoparticles using cyclotrons-generated radioactive precursor materials.

TL;DR: In this article, a compact, accelerator driven, neutron activator based on a modified version of the Adiabatic Resonance Crossing (ARC) concept has been developed, with the aim of efficiently utilising ion-beam generated neutrons for the production of radioactive nanoparticles for brachytherapy.

TL;DR: The TRiga Accelerator-Driven Experiment (TRADE) as discussed by the authors is based on the original idea of C. Rubbia and is performed at the ENEA-Casaccia Centre in Italy.

TL;DR: High-resolution IP images were able to guide biopsy toward cancer or washout zones of the cancer, that are thought to be chemoresistant in 7 patients out of 10, confirming the ability of IP to guide breast biopsy even when the mini-camera has to be manually handled by trained physicians during operation.

TL;DR: In this article, the radionuclidic impurities of the irradiated water originated by the (18)F]FDG synthesis process, and characterizing, from a radioprotection point of view, the waste streams produced.
