By adopting the method provided by the invention, radio isotopes higher in activity are generated, and the cost is relatively low; in addition, the device provided by the invention is compact and convenient to carry, and the device is capable of being placed near a large-sized medical mechanism to be better applied to and serve radiation diagnosis, targeting treatment and other medical applications.

Description

A kind of medical-isotope production method based on laser wakefield accelerator and device
Technical field
The present invention relates to applied nuclear technologies field, be specifically related to a kind of medical-isotope production method based on laser wakefield accelerator and device.
Background technology
As a branch of medical science, nuclear medicine utilizes non-natural isotope (comprising radioactive isotope and stable isotope) and nuclear radiation to carry out biomedical research and disease treatment.On the one hand, the radiation that radioactive isotope produces can be used for the diagnostic message of certain certain organs providing biosome, and current this kind of diagnostic routine becomes routine business; On the other hand, radioactive nuclide can be introduced pathological tissues selectively, the cancer cell of α, β irridiation injury active growth utilizing it to launch or other pathological tissues, to reach the object for the treatment of.
Have in world wide and altogether carried out number every year in nuclear medicine procedure necessarily more than 10,000 hospitals, wherein the program of 90% is used for nuclear medicine diagnostic.Isotope for radiodiagnosis mainly contains 99mo/ 99mtc, 18f, 11c, 68ga, 123,124i, 131i, 64cu etc., and mainly contain for radiocurable 131i, 177lu, 186 , 188re, 90y, 153sm, 213bi, 212at, 225ra/ 225ac, 67cu, 111in, 103pd, 195mpt etc.These isotope producing methods are more single, usually produced by charged particle accelerator (comprising linear accelerator or cyclotron) or nuclear reactor. 99mtc is the most frequently used radioactive isotope for radiodiagnosis that said apparatus is produced, and utilizes every year 99mthe diagnostic routine that Tc carries out reaches 4,000 ten thousand to four thousand five hundred ten thousand, accounts for 80% of all nuclear medicine procedure in the world.In the developed country of world population accounting for 26%, the frequency of annual radiodiagnosis is 1.9%, and radiocurable frequency is about 1/10th of radiodiagnosis.At the U.S. (3.1 hundred million population), use more than 2,000 ten thousand nuclear medicine procedure every year, Europe (500,000,000 population) is 1,000 ten thousand times, and Australia's (0.2 hundred million population) is 560,000 times.
In radiodiagnosis, radiopharmaceutic use annual growth is more than 10%.But because the productive capacity of existing medical-isotope generation device reaches the upper limit already, add the market demand and increased fast, supply falls short of demand that situation is increasingly serious for medical radioisotope.With 99mo/ 99mthe isotopic process units of Tc is example, has 5 block response heaps (to bring out highly enriched with neutron at present in the world 235u) about 95% is produced 99mo market supply.But wherein three block response heaps are faced with stopping production because running the time limit.The NRU reactor of Canada Chalk River (produces about 40% 99mo market supply) bring into operation in nineteen fifty-seven, wherein run successively again after shutdown for several times, estimate in 2016 years final plant closures; OSIRIS (70 megawatt) reactor of France Saclay announced the end of the year 2015 by French Government closes; Belgian BR2 reactor predicted operation to 2016 year, and without any technical reason not shutdown before the year two thousand twenty.
What is particularly worth mentioning is that, due to 2008 years 99mo supplies crisis, and most case control is because using 99mtc carries out SPECT and is postponed or canceled.Separately there is hundreds thousand of patient to be forced to select more higher-priced PET, or use the goodish radioactive isotope of imaging effect.As can be seen here, the ever-increasing market demand and nearest supply failure and calculated reactor shut-down, this will force countries in the world scientific research personnel to seek more effective way to guarantee 99mo and decay product thereof 99mthe stable supply of Tc.
