Houston, TX, USA, and Garching, Germany, Feb. 10, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- RadioMedix, and OncoBeta today announced the ex*****on of an exclusive distribution agreement for the next generation of W/Re-188 generators in the U.S. and Canada.
The OncoBeta® Tungsten (Wolfram)-188/Rhenium-188 (W/Re-188) Generators can be used for radiolabeling reactions or directly as a high dose liquid radioactive source. Rhenium-188 (Re-188) is a high energy-emitting radioisotope obtained from the W/Re-188 Generator. Re-188 has shown high efficiency and value for a variety of therapeutic applications in nuclear medicine, oncology, and interventional radiology/cardiology areas. Its advantageous physical properties, its potential low cost, and with a long-lived parent, make this generator an attractive option for clinical use. The high energy of the emission of Re-188 is particularly well suited for the effective pe*******on in solid tumors as well as skin cancers. Its total radiation dose delivered to tissues is comparable to other radionuclides used in therapy today.
