Novel enhancements of cyclotron based production, purification & applications of the PET radionuclide copper-61: Complexation to nanospheres for biomedical imaging

For thirty years, cyclotron-produced radioisotopes have attracted considerable interest in biomedicine. This thesis describes novel contributions to the production and purification of the positron-emission-tomography (PET) radioisotope copper-61, and its complexation to several bifunctional chelator...
