The pair of copper radionuclides  64 Cu/ 67 Cu (T 1/2  = 12. 7 h/61.8 h) allows, respectively, PET imaging and targeted beta therapy. An analysis of the different production routes of  67 Cu with charged particles was performed and the reaction  70 Zn(d,x) route was identified as a promising one. It may allow the production of  67 Cu without  64 Cu. The production cross section has been measured up to 28.7 MeV. Measurements were done using the well-known stacked-foils technique using 97.5% enriched  70 Zn homemade electroplated targets. These measurements complement at higher incident energies the only set of data available in nuclear databases. The results show that using a 26 MeV deuteron beam and a highly enriched  70 Zn target, it is possible to produce high purity  67 Cu comparable to that obtained using photoproduction. This production route can be of interest for future linear accelerators under development where mA deuteron beams can be available if adequate targetry is developed.

Is 70Zn(d,x)67Cu the Best Way to Produce 67Cu for Medical Applications?
