Abstract
PET imaging requires the formation, synthesis and administration of substantial quantities of radioactivity. The routine production of radiolabelied pharmaceuticals is complex and is achieved through automation. By combining the nuclide production, chemical syntheses and radiation monitoring functions through network integration of several different computing systems, the operation of a PET center is simplified and more efficiently managed.
