Radiopharmaceuticals are radioactive medicines that are essential in order to perform Nuclear Medicine Scans on patients. Big Spring VA Health Care System Imaging Service, Nuclear Medicine Section requires the ability to received radiopharmaceuticals on a daily and/or as needed basis. Radiopharmaceuticals are used on patients in order to perform diagnostic nuclear medicine studies. Nuclear Medicine Section must purchase the radiopharmaceuticals from a vendor that holds an unrevoked USNRC and/or FDA license to produce and distribute radiopharmaceuticals for human administration, and a license to receive, and dispose of radioactive waste. Radiopharmaceuticals must be prepared according to manufacturers package inserts. Deliveries of radiopharmaceuticals will incorporate sufficient lead or high-density metal shielding to comply with all applicable federal and/or state standards relating to shipment of radioactive materials. Shipping containers must comply with state and federal regulations. This includes DOT, DOE, USNRC, and ICC regulations and standards. Because of the critical need for these supplies in a timely manner, only a vendor that can supply the radiopharmaceuticals on an "as needed basis" to the VA in Big Spring, TX can be used. The radioactive medicines have a very short time (half life) once they are received by the VA to be used. F-18 for example has a viability of only 30 minutes. Once this time has been exceeded, this radioactive medicine is unusable. Other radioactive products, once prepared, can be used up to a maximum limit of about six (6) hours.
