Status of the cyclotron/P.E.T. facility at the State University of New York at Buffalo
A new P.E.T./Cyclotron facility has been constructed on the Main St. campus of the State University of New York at Buffalo to service the needs of Nuclear Medicine departments in Buffalo and throughout the Western New York area. This facility is jointly funded and operated by S.U.N.Y. and the Veterans Administration. The cyclotron, as well as the research labs and a nuclear pharmacy to prepare non-positron emitting radiopharmaceuticals, are located in a newly constructed facility on campus. The P.E.T. scanner is located in the Veterans Administration Hospital adjacent to the campus. The two annexes are connected by a pneumatic transport {open_quotes}rabbit{close_quotes} system. The cyclotron and all radiopharmaceutical synthesis apparatus have been purchased from Ion Beam Applications s.a. of Lovain-la-Neuve Belgium.
