Objectives
The speaker team is set up to provide you with the unique possibility to discuss the current status and the future expectations with representatives of national authorities as well as professionals from universities, hospitals and engineering.
Background
The manufacturing of radiopharmaceutical products confronts the producing establishment with a collection of challenges. On the one hand, there is the challenge by the contradictory requirements of quality and safety guidelines of pharmaceutical products and the standards of staff safety and radiation protection. On the other hand, there are issues of small batch sizes and short shelf life. The short shelf life necessitates fast transportation and application to the patient. These circumstances mean that classical requirements like sterility testing before release and application cannot be fulfilled and GDP is a real challenge.
