Abstract
A cyclotron with the proton beam current of 100 µA and a variable proton energy range of 15 -
30 MeV is planned to install at ANRTC to produce the medically important radioisotopes 67Ga,
201Tl, 123I and 111In, imported for the need of Turkey. In this work, the annually production rates
170 Ci for 67Ga, 303 Ci for 201TI, 283 Ci for 123I and 325 Ci for 111In have been calculated
theoretically. Also the production costs have been estimated to be 2.7 $/mCi for 67Ga, 2.9 $/mCi
for 201T1, 3.3 $/mCi for 123I and 0.6 $/mCi for 111In levelized ten years’ facility amortization. It
has been seen that the calculated production costs for these radioisotopes will be less than their
import prices.
