SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING ELUTION FROM A RADIOISOTOPE GENERATOR WITH ELECTRONIC PINCH VALVES

摘要

Embodiments of the present invention relate to a system and method for controlling an elution process with at least one electronic pinch valve (22,24). Specifically, embodiments of the present invention include supplying eluent to a radioisotope generator (12) of a radioisotope elution system (10), and controlling elution of the radioisotope generator with at least one electronic pinch valve (22,24) disposed on at least one flow line (26) of the radioisotope elution system, wherein the electronic pinch valve is configured to either block flow through the at least one flow line or enable flow through the at least one flow line based on a state of the electronic pinch valve.
