RUBY-FILL® Rubidium 82 Generator

The RUBY-FILL® Generator contains an accelerator produced Strontium-82, which decays to Rubidium-82. When the generator is eluted with saline it produces a sterile, non-pyrogenic solution of Rb-82 Chloride.

Due to the short half-life (75 s) of Rb-82, the use of an elution system is required for delivery of the Rb-82 Chloride into a patient for the purposes of performing Myocardial Perfusion Imaging with PET. PET imaging with Rb-82 Chloride may be performed under rest and/or stress conditions.
