Monte Carlo prediction and experimental characterisation of long-lived waste byproducts arising from cyclotron production of zirconium-89 utilising a commercially available yttrium foil

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Zirconium-89 is presently undergoing pre-clinical investigation for its potential application as a positron emission tomography (PET) theranostic radioisotope. A critical consideration in the increasing number of trials and eventual clinical implementations is a comprehensive understanding of the radioactive waste byproducts and their quantification. This study focuses on the investigat...
