SPECT Imaging Agents (Technetium-99m) with Vincent Bouvet

In this essential session from the CANM’25 Radiopharmacy Review Course, Vincent Bouvet presents a comprehensive overview of SPECT imaging agents based on Technetium-99m (Tc-99m), the most widely used radionuclide in nuclear medicine. His lecture covers the production and preparation of Tc-99m radiopharmaceuticals, including generator systems, labeling techniques, and quality considerations. The session also reviews the broad range of clinical applications of Tc-99m across organ systems, highlighting its central role in diagnostic imaging. Special attention is given to the practical aspects of radiopharmacy workflows, as well as the reliability and accessibility of Tc-99m in supporting routine nuclear medicine practice. This session is part of the 2025 CANM Radiopharmacy Review Course, a comprehensive program designed to provide an overview of the preparation of SPECT, PET, and therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals, including radionuclide production, quality control, and regulatory considerations. Developed under the direction of Dr. Freimut Juengling, Dr. Jan Andersson, Dr. Andrew Ross, and Dr. Andrew Ross, and Dr. Svetlana Selivanova, the course offers a concise yet comprehensive framework for professionals seeking to strengthen their expertise in radiopharmacy and molecular imaging. #Radiopharmacy #SPECT #Technetium99m #NuclearMedicine #MedicalImaging #CANM2025
