Thallium-201 is a radioisotope used in single photon computed tomography (SPECT). It has a half-life of 74 hours. It is a cyclotron produced isotope delivered as Tl-chloride for injection. It is mainly used in myocardial perfusion imaging.
Nirta® Solid target 30 MeV
203Tl is electro deposited onto copper target in IBA Solid target station.
IBA provides only the irradiation station equipment.
Dissolution & Purification
The irradiated target material is then dissolved and purified to isolate 201Pb and after proper growth time the 201Tl is extracted and purified from the stock solution. Enriched 203Tl can be reused for further plating.
