Description

System based on proton irradiation Ni and preparation method of high-purity Ni target
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of nuclear technology and nuclear medicine application, in particular to a system based on proton irradiation Ni and a preparation method of a high-purity Ni target.
Background
The medical radionuclide is a radionuclide containing radioactivity used for medical diagnosis, treatment and disease research, and is suitable for the diagnosis and treatment of human diseases. Over 4 million people worldwide receive medical radioisotope diagnosis (90%) or treatment (10%) annually. The radioactive medicine is a special medicine containing radioactive nuclide for medical diagnosis and treatment, and mainly refers to a compound or biological preparation containing radioactive nuclide label for medical diagnosis or treatment in the body. Radiopharmaceuticals are important components of nuclear medicine, and they are widely used in diagnosis and treatment of cancer, myocardial imaging and diagnosis of heart diseases, and status monitoring of neurodegenerative diseases. Due to the special half-life of radiopharmaceuticals, the drugs will gradually "disappear" in a short time or over a certain period of time, depending on the species. Radiopharmaceuticals are classified into diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals according to their use. The radiopharmaceuticals for diagnosis can be divided into single photon radiopharmaceuticals and positron radiopharmaceuticals which are respectively used as imaging agents of a single photon tomography (SPECT) or a Positron Emission Tomography (PET), the functions and metabolic processes of the radiopharmaceuticals in living bodies are researched on the molecular level, the rapid, nondestructive and real-time imaging of physiological and pathological processes is realized, and the technical support is provided for the real early diagnosis and timely treatment. 99mTc has a suitable energy gamma ray (140keV) and a half-life (T1/2: 6.02h), and therefore, has low radiation damage and good imaging resolution, and is widely used for SPECT diagnosis of various diseases such as heart, brain, kidney, bone, lung, and thyroid gland. Worldwide 99mTc marker drugs are used for nuclear medicine diagnosis more than 3000 ten thousand times per year, accounting for 80% of the worldwide nuclear medicine clinical diagnosis drugs. More than 80% of technetium [99mTc ] and its labeled compound in nuclide medicine for diagnosis; with the popularization and application of PET/CT imaging instruments, the application of positron radioactive nuclides such as fluorine [18F ], copper [64Cu ], gallium [68Ga ], zirconium [89Zr ] and iodine [123I ] is increasing year by year.
The radioactive medicine for treatment is mainly characterized in that a radioactive isotope is directly introduced into a focus through a targeting medicine, and beta rays or alpha rays generated by the decay of a nuclide are utilized to irradiate focus cancer cells, so that pathological cell tissues are inhibited or destroyed, and the treatment purpose is achieved. For example, 131I is one of the radioactive isotopes used for the earliest treatment of diseases, accounts for about 90 percent of nuclear medicine treatment medicines, and can treat diseases such as thyroid hyperplasia and the like; 89Sr is a radiopharmaceutical with bone affinity, is used for relieving bone pain caused by bone metastasis cancer, and has good long-acting analgesic effect; 68Ga and 177Lu are currently the most promising and market-active targeted radiodiagnosis and treatment integrated nuclides; 223Ra is the first clinical treatment alpha nuclide approved by FDA and EMA, and is mainly used for treating various cancers accompanied with bone metastasis symptoms but without visceral metastasis.
Medical radionuclides are produced today primarily by reactors and accelerators, and are available in part by radionuclide generators and nuclear fuel reprocessing. The latter two are also actually extracted by the reactor, the accelerator or the spent nuclear fuel in the reactor.
The accelerator mainly produces neutron-deficient radionuclides, is another important mode for producing radioactive isotopes, and makes up the defects of the species of the radionuclides to a great extent. Currently, accelerator-producible radionuclide species account for over 60% of the known radionuclide species. However, although 130 cyclotron systems exist in China, 18F is mainly produced, and a target preparation system, a target irradiation cooling system, an isotope separation and purification system and the like for batch production of other medical nuclides are mainly lacked, so that research and development of novel radiopharmaceuticals are seriously influenced. Due to the shortage of medical radionuclides, particularly the shortage of short-life medical radionuclides, the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of patients and the normal medication and the healthy development of nuclear medicine in China are greatly influenced. Therefore, in order to realize the autonomous and large-scale production supply of the medical nuclide, the development of core equipment for producing the medical nuclide based on an accelerator is carried out, new materials and production process flows are perfected and developed, the automation and remote control of the whole process are realized by matching with a computer technology, the development trend of the field of medical isotope production is realized, the emission of radioactive wastes is reduced, and the equipment and process for producing the medical isotope in China have an important function.
Therefore, how to ensure the stable supply of medical isotope is a great problem in medical diagnosis and treatment using medical radionuclide, which mainly provides stable Ni target.
