Abstracts

EN

At the beginning of 2000 the PET technique was not available in Poland. The structure and organization of the Radiopharmaceuticals Production and Research Centre at the Heavy Ion Laboratory, University of Warsaw is described as an example of a production department. The present status of several radiopharmaceutical production departments is presented which should give a comprehensive outlook of radiopharmaceutical production capabilities in Poland over the next few years.
