Cyclotron construction has begun!

The GE HealthCare PETtrace 890 Cyclotron, acquired in collaboration with GE HealthCare and Cyclomedical International, will enable The University of Oklahoma to produce advanced radiopharmaceuticals on site.

College of Pharmacy team, Dean Medina, Dr. Wendy Galbraith, Dr. Vihbu Awasthi, Pharmacist Ann Quezada, Eric Johnson, and Kevin Rinaldi, recently toured the cyclotron construction site

“Many of these radiopharmaceuticals simply haven’t been available in Oklahoma before,” said Dean Medina. Now we can produce them here, which opens the door to better imaging, faster decisions, and more personalized treatments for Oklahomans.”
