This publication is the outcome of a meeting of an
international team of experts that discussed various technical and scientific
details applicable to the production of important radionuclides such as 99Mo,
copper-67 (67Cu), scandium-47 (47Sc) and actinium-225 (225Ac)
using the photonuclear route. This publication provides an overview of the
current state of methods for the photonuclear production of isotopes with a
particular focus on those medical radioisotopes that could be produced in
sufficient quantities for clinical use in nuclear medicine. It is intended for
scientists and technical professionals in the fields of electron accelerators
and radioisotope production.?
