System evaluation of automated production and inhalation of 15O-labeled gaseous radiopharmaceuticals for the rapid 15O-oxygen PET examinations

Abstract Background 15O-oxygen inhalation PET is unique in its ability to provide fundamental information regarding cerebral hemodynamics and energy metabolism in man. However, the use of 15O-oxygen has been limited in a clinical environment largely attributed to logistical complexity, in relation t...
