ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a system for synthesizing radiopharmaceuticals employing one or more single-use integrated kits of materials, valves and vessels fitted to one or more stationary apparatus in the manner that the kit can be safely ejected and disposed of without manual operations. Fluidic connections on the kits are made with flexible tubing that can be inserted into the various components by hand. This, along with the use of flexible configuration rotary valves, makes it possible to configure them to carry out a variety of processes.
