Abstract
The medical application of some short lived carrier free radionuclides (11C, 13N, 55Co, 197Hg) produced with the external beam of the KVI cyclotron are outlined. Some approaches to labelling with these nuclides are discussed. The development of a multiwire proportional counter for the imaging of low energy gamma rays is described. Images of positron emitters with a dual head Anger camera are shown.
