4 - Daily Setup
Installing the Multi-Dose
Vial
WARNING: DO NOT use any RP other than
18
F-FDG or
18
F-NaF with the Intego™
PET Infusion System. Use of radiopharmaceuticals other than
18
F-FDG or
18
F-NaF
may cause inaccurate dose measurement and/or excessive radioactive exposure.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard.
18
F-FDG or
18
F-NaF emit gamma
radiation. Operator should exercise extreme caution when handling
radiopharmaceuticals. Doses may exceed maximum permissible dose if appropriate
precautions are not properly exercised. Follow all individual facility guidelines for the
handling and disposal of radioactive materials. DO NOT open the Shielded Chamber
without first taking radiation precautions per facility procedures.
WARNING: Severe operator injury can occur if care is not taken when opening
or closing the Shielded Chamber Lid or the PAS Compartment Cover. Be certain
that all fingers are clear before opening or closing the Shielded Chamber Lid or the
PAS Compartment Cover.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard. Using the Shielded Chamber Lid as a
work space may expose the operator to excess radiation. Do not use the
Shielded Chamber Lid as a work space while there are radioactive materials present
within the Intego™ PET Infusion System. Using the Shielded Chamber Lid as a work
space or placing items on the Shielded Chamber Lid while it is open may damage the
Shielded Chamber Lid, hampering its ability to provide an adequate radiation shield.
WARNING: Radiation exposure hazard. Do not insert more than 27.75 GBq
(750 mCi) into the Intego™ PET Infusion System.
NOTE: Entering RP Assay and Saline Information may be completed before or after
installing the Multi-Dose Vial. Installing the SAS should be completed prior to
installing the Multi-Dose Vial.
NOTE: In the following steps, it will be helpful to refer to the diagrams of the Intego
Infusion System Components, Intego Shielded Chamber Components, and the
SAS Components.
