PET in the Department of Nuclear Medicine

The PET Radiopharmacy Center at the Department of Nuclear Medicine, Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine Jinshazhou Hospital of Guangzhou University of Chinese Medicine, is a fully integrated facility for the production and research of positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals. Operating under full-process Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) compliance from its design and construction to daily management the center is officially licensed by the Guangdong
Provincial Medical Products Administ「ation with a “Radioactive D「ug Use License (Type 4)” and a “Filing Approval for Positron-emitting Radiopharmaceuticals. “The center’s infrastructure includes a GMP cleanroom, a cyclotron vault and control room, synthesis hot cells, a quality control (QC) lab, and a small animal lab. Its core equipment is a Sumitomo HM-10HC+ medical cyclotron (10 MeV), equipped with six targets (18F, 11C, 13N, 68Ga, 64Cu, 89Zr), including solid targets for 68Ga, 64Cu, and 89Zr.Currently producing and developing 39 different positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals, the center serves as a crucial platform for clinical diagnostics and drives the research and clinical translation of novel radiopharmaceutical agents.
