variable beam current up to 1.2 mA. It was designed, manufactured and installed by Belgian Ion Beam Applications S.A. (IBA). The cyclotron cost 11.6 million EUR. With the cyclotron, four beamlines can be generated, three beamlines for radioisotope production and one for research and development works. With the proton bombardment following radioisotopes are produced in three separate target rooms: Indium-111, gallium-67, thallium-201 on solid target material, Fluorine-18 on liquid target material, Iodine-123 on evaporated target material. These radioisotopes and radiopharmaceuticals produced from those radioisotopes are used for the diagnosis and therapy of diseases like cancer, neurological disorder, brain physiology and pathology as well as coronary artery disease. By producing radioisotopes and radiopharmaceuticals, the facility conducts research work in the fields of medicine, industry, agriculture, food, biotechnology, animal husbandry and heath physics.
