Nawar MF, Türler A. New strategies for a sustainable 99mTc supply to meet increasing medical demands: Promising solutions for current problems. Front Chem 2022; 10:926258.

Abstract
The continuing rapid expansion of 99mTc diagnostic agents always calls for scaling up 99mTc production to cover increasing clinical demand. Nevertheless, 99mTc availability depends mainly on the fission-produced 99Mo supply. This supply is seriously influenced during renewed emergency periods, such as the past 99Mo production crisis or the current COVID-19 pandemic. Consequently, these interruptions have promoted the need for 99mTc production through alternative strategies capable of providing clinical-grade 99mTc with high purity. In the light of this context, this review illustrates diverse production routes that either have commercially been used or new strategies that offer potential solutions to promote a rapid production growth of 99mTc. These techniques have been selected, highlighted, and evaluated to imply their impact on developing 99mTc production. Furthermore, their advantages and limitations, current situation, and long-term perspective were also discussed. It appears that, on the one hand, careful attention needs to be devoted to enhancing the 99Mo economy. It can be achieved by utilizing 98Mo neutron activation in commercial nuclear power reactors and using accelerator-based 99Mo production, especially the photonuclear transmutation strategy. On the other hand, more research efforts should be devoted to widening the utility of 99Mo/99mTc generators, which incorporate nanomaterial-based sorbents and promote their development, validation, and full automization in the near future. These strategies are expected to play a vital role in providing sufficient clinical-grade 99mTc, resulting in a reasonable cost per patient dose.

Abstract
Abstract
Activation cross-section of photon-induced reaction on structural materials 58Ni and 59Co was measured at the bremsstrahlung endpoint energy 15 MeV from an S band electron linac. The uncertainties in the (γ,n) reaction cross-section of both 58Ni and 59Co were estimated by using the concept of covariance analysis. The cross-section of 58Ni(γ,n)57Ni reaction in the present work is slightly lower than the previous experimental data and the TENDL-2015 data. The cross-section of 59Co(γ,n)58Co reaction has been measured for the first time. However, the present experimental data of 59Co(γ,n)58Co reaction is very low in comparison to the TENDL-2015 and JENDL/PD-2004 data.

Abstract
INTRODUCTION The significance of nuclear data in the choice and medical application of a radionuclide is considered: the decay data determine its suitability for organ imaging or internal therapy and the reaction cross section data allow optimisation of its production route. A brief discussion of reaction cross sections and yields is given. STANDARD RADIONUCLIDES The standard SPECT, PET and therapeutic radionuclides are enumerated and their decay and production data are considered. The status of nuclear data is generally good. Some existing discrepancies are outlined. A few promising alternative production routes of 99mTc and 68Ga are discussed. RESEARCH-ORIENTED RADIONUCLIDES The increasing significance of non-standard positron emitters in organ imaging and of low-energy highly-ionizing radiation emitters in internal therapy is discussed, their nuclear data are considered and a brief review of their status is presented. Some other related nuclear data issues are also mentioned. PRODUCTION OF RADIONUCLIDES USING NEWER TECHNOLOGIES The data needs arising from new directions in radionuclide applications (multimode imaging, theranostic approach, radionanoparticles, etc.) are considered. The future needs of data associated with possible utilization of newer irradiation technologies (intermediate energy cyclotron, high-intensity photon accelerator, spallation neutron source, etc.) are outlined. CONCLUSION Except for a few small discrepancies, the available nuclear data are sufficient for routine production and application of radionuclides. Considerable data needs exist for developing novel radionuclides for applications. The developing future technologies for radionuclide production will demand further data-related activities.

Abstract
In this study, production cross–section calculations of 32P, 117Sn, 153Sm and 186,188Re radionuclides used in bone pain palliation treatment produced by 30Si(d,γ)32P, 118Sn(γ,n)117Sn, 116Sn(n,γ)117Sn, 150Nd(α,n)153Sm, 154Sm(n,2n)153Sm, 152Sm(n,γ)153Sm, 186W(d,2n)186Re, 187Re(γ,n)186Re, 185Re(n,γ)186Re and 187Re(n,γ)188Re reactions have been investigated in the different incident energy range of 0.003–34 MeV. Two-component exciton and generalised superfluid models of the TALYS 1.6 and exciton and generalised superfluid models of the EMPIRE 3.1 computer codes have been used to pre-equilibrium (PEQ) reaction calculations. The calculated production cross–section results have been compared with available experimental results existing in the experimental nuclear reaction database (EXFOR). Except the 118Sn(γ,n)117Sn, 150Nd(α,n)153Sm and 185Re(n,γ)186Re reactions, the two-component exciton model calculations of TALYS 1.6 code exhibit generally good agreement with the experimental measurements for all reactions used in this present study.

Abstract
Abstract
Medical radionuclide production technology is well established. Both reactors and cyclotrons are utilized for production; the positron emitters, however, are produced exclusively using cyclotrons. A brief survey of the production methods of most commonly used diagnostic and therapeutic radionuclides is given. The emerging radionuclides are considered in more detail. They comprise novel positron emitters and therapeutic radionuclides emitting low-range electrons and α-particles. The possible alternative production routes of a few established radionuclides, like 68Ga and 99mTc, are discussed. The status of standardisation of production data of the commonly used as well as of some emerging radionuclides is briefly mentioned. Some notions on anticipated future trends in the production and application of radionuclides are considered.
