Question 1

A nuclear medicine department elutes a technetium-99m (99mTc) generator at 08:00 AM, obtaining an activity of 740 MBq (20 mCi) in a radiopharmaceutical preparation vial. If the physical half-life of 99mTc is 6.0 hours and no further elution occurs, what is the remaining radioactivity in the vial at 02:00 PM (14:00) on the same day, assuming negligible chemical degradation?

185 MBq (5 mCi) 370 MBq (10 mCi) 555 MBq (15 mCi) 92.5 MBq (2.5 mCi)

Correct Answer:

370 MBq (10 mCi)

Question 2

A therapeutic radiopharmaceutical has a radionuclide physical half-life (Tp) of 8.0 days and a biological clearance half-life (Tb) from the target tumor tissue of 2.0 days. What is the effective half-life (Te) of the radiopharmaceutical in the tumor?

1.6 days (38.4 hours) 2.7 days (64.8 hours) 5.0 days (120 hours) 10.0 days (240 hours)

Correct Answer:

1.6 days (38.4 hours)

Question 3

In a clinical molybdenum-99 / technetium-99m (99Mo/99mTc) generator system, the parent radionuclide 99Mo has a physical half-life of 66.0 hours and the daughter 99mTc has a half-life of 6.0 hours. What type of radioactive equilibrium is established, and approximately how many hours after elution does maximum 99mTc activity occur?

Secular equilibrium; maximum daughter activity is reached at 48 to 72 hours. Transient equilibrium; maximum daughter activity is reached at approximately 23 hours. Transient equilibrium; maximum daughter activity is reached at exactly 6 hours. No equilibrium; daughter activity decreases continuously without reaching a maximum.

Correct Answer:

Transient equilibrium; maximum daughter activity is reached at approximately 23 hours.

Question 4

In a germanium-68 / gallium-68 (68Ge/68Ga) generator used for PET radiopharmacy, 68Ge has a half-life of 271 days and 68Ga has a half-life of 67.7 minutes. Which type of radioactive equilibrium governs this system, and how quickly after elution does 68Ga activity regenerate to approximately 50% of its maximum yield?

Secular equilibrium; 68Ga regenerates to 50% of maximum yield in approximately 68 minutes (1 half-life). Transient equilibrium; 68Ga regenerates to 50% of maximum yield in approximately 4.5 hours (4 half-lives). Secular equilibrium; 68Ga requires 271 days to regenerate to 50% capacity. Dynamic non-equilibrium; 68Ga yield cannot be predicted by physical decay equations.

Correct Answer:

Secular equilibrium; 68Ga regenerates to 50% of maximum yield in approximately 68 minutes (1 half-life).

Question 5

According to Brazilian regulatory standards (CNEN-NN-3.05) and the United States Pharmacopeia (USP), what is the maximum permissible limit for molybdenum-99 (99Mo) breakthrough (radionuclidic impurity) in a 99mTc generator eluate at the time of patient administration?

0.15 kBq of 99Mo per 1 MBq of 99mTc (0.15 uCi 99Mo / mCi 99mTc) 1.5 kBq of 99Mo per 1 MBq of 99mTc (1.5 uCi 99Mo / mCi 99mTc) 0.015 kBq of 99Mo per 1 MBq of 99mTc (0.015 uCi 99Mo / mCi 99mTc) 15.0 kBq of 99Mo per 1 MBq of 99mTc (15.0 uCi 99Mo / mCi 99mTc)

Correct Answer:

0.15 kBq of 99Mo per 1 MBq of 99mTc (0.15 uCi 99Mo / mCi 99mTc)
