Short Port Beamline

D-Pace has developed a very short (150 mm long) beamline known as the "Short Port" beamline. It enables users to mount custom high performance targets on their PET Cyclotrons.

Features

• Designed for use on the General Electric PETtrace™ cyclotron. It can be adapted to other cyclotrons.
• Provides more comprehensive diagnostic readback capabilities than are provided by most PET cyclotron manufacturers.
• Enables mounting, and safer operation of custom high current targets.
• Increases the level of beam current diagnostics which can be readback to a control system for beam tuning purposes.
• Provides a means for custom PET targets to be mounted to commercial cyclotron exit ports.
• Provides a vacuum valve between cyclotron exit port and target flange.
