The proposed studies will be conducted as a collaboration between the Radiochemistry Division at the University of Washington and the Medical Isotopes group at the Los Alamos National Laboratory focused on the development of a generator system and chelation chemistry that will permit the short-lived alpha-emitting radionuclide Th-226 to be used in Molecular Radiotherapy applications.
