Background Validation and qualification activities are nowadays an integral part of the day by day routine work in a radiopharmacy. This document is meant as an Appendix of Part B of the EANM "Guidelines on Good Radiopharmacy Practice (GRPP)" issued by the Radiopharmacy Committee of the EANM, covering the qualification and validation aspects related to the small-scale "in house" preparation of ...

UNLABELLED In the daily practice of in-hospital or centralized radiopharmacies, there is a need to perform reliable numeric calculations. Furthermore, several nuclear medicine diagnostic tests also involve carrying out calculations. In both cases, these calculations are sometimes complex or tedious and prone to error. We report the development of a computer software program that performs a comp...

This paper discusses the development of virtual communities and especially e-learning communities. In particular, this paper is inspired by VirRAD European project, and presents the intermediate results that have raised from the definition of this virtual radiopharmacy community.

a radiopharmaceutical is a radioactive compound used for the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. radiopharmaceuticals are among the most highly regulated materials administered to patients because they are controlled both as drugs and as radioactive substances. the use of radiopharmaceuticals for any purpose is governed by regulatory agencies in different countries all over the world. ap...

This is a position paper of the Radiopharmacy Committee of the EANM (European Association of Nuclear Medicine) addressing toxicology studies for application of new diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals (RP) that are not approved (i.e., not having a marketing authorization or a monograph in the European Pharmacopoeia), excluding endogenous and ubiquitous substances in humans. This pape...
