Thorium-226 (half-life 30.6 m) is a radionuclide of interest for use in targeted alpha therapy applications. Additionally, due to its short half-life, 226Th must be provided through a radionuclide generator system from its parent 230U (20.8 d). Furthermore, as the half-life of 226Th is very short, it should be provided in a form that is directly amenable to use in biomedical applications.
