Abstract

The aim of this work is the evaluation of the performance characteristics of two different PET/CT systems, GE Discovery STE, and Philips GEMINI, for ⁶⁴Cu-ATSM (Cu-diacetyl-bis(N⁴-methylthiosemicarbazone)) a radiopharmaceutical proposed for hypoxia. ⁶⁴Cu is a non-pure positron emitter. National Electrical Manufactures Association (NEMA) NU 2-2001 standards characteristics were measured for ⁶⁴Cu with comparison with more widely used ¹⁸F, a pure positron emitter.
