PHAR 810

During the lectures, the students will be presented with the basic principles of radiochemistry, radiolabeling, making radiopharmaceuticals, their quality control and applications for imaging and therapy of patients. They will have the opportunity to learn how to perform the calculations needed to manufacture radiopharmaceuticals and how to operate a radiopharmacy. They will also take part in two field trips to the Fedoruk Center for Nuclear Innovation and to the Department of Nuclear Medicine at the Royal University Hospital to observe first-hand how radiopharmaceuticals are manufactured and used in patients care, respectively.
