IBA versatile cyclotrons can be configured in many different ways. You will benefit from a complete solution in terms of target systems and beam line technology for PET and SPECT production.
The unique and under patent application (EP 15170854) solution for production of 68Ga (for human) use has many advantages :
Gas irradiation system for the production of [15O]O2 or [15O]CO, [11C]CH4 or [11C]CO2.
Solid targets are irradiation systems used for the production of nonconventional radioisotopes such as:
64Cu, 89Zr, 99mTc, 124I, 123I and many others.
Vectio® is an external beam transport line that is installed on high energy cyclotron and that can be installed on the Cyclone® KIUBE. It is the tool of choice for high power solid target station or R&D development with particle beam.

Thanks to the combination of the Cyclone® KIUBE and the Nirta® 18F targets, we have a cost-effective solution for large production of 18F, high activity in a short run with low enriched water consumption. We are happy with the reliability and performance and we are proud to produce 60Ci 18F a day to deliver to hospitals for patient diagnosis.

The Nirta® Solid target is the main instrument for our research program on novel radioisotopes for theranostics. It is a high performance and user-friendly device whose flexibility allowed us to develop a new kind of “coin” target to irradiate enriched materials in form of compressed powder. We have already successfully produced a large variety of non conventional radionuclides as Sc-43, Sc-44, Ga-68, Cu-61, Cu-64, Er-155.
