Medical Isotope Production of Actinium 225 By Linear Accelerator Photon Irradiation of Radium 226
… a number of differing cancers by way of Targeted Alpha Therapy (TAT). This method utilizes the alpha-decay of both Ac-225 (half-life 10 days) and Bi-213 (half-life 46 min) to kill cancerous cells on a localized basis. Maximum energy is delivered to the cancer cells thereby greatly …

Experimental approaches for the production of thorium-229
… detecting and treating various forms of cancer. Targeted alpha therapy (TAT) is a promising technique for treating metastatic cancer and involves delivering a radionuclide to the cancerous cells in the body, where it decays by releasing high-energy (5-8 MeV) α-particles with high linear energy …

Synthesis and preclinical evaluation of peptide receptor-targeted diagnostic and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals for prostate cancer
… through a branched decay chain consisting of one alpha particle and one beta particle emission in each decay pathway. Hence, [212]Pb is of interest as an in vivo generator of [212]Bi for targeted alpha therapy. The fundamental chemistry and radiochemistry involved in the synthesis, purification …
