Radioisotopes used in nuclear medicine (Sc-47, Cu-67, Ga-68, Rh-105, Lu-177, and Re-188) were produced by an electron linear accelerator in this study. Neutron irradiation was investigated as an alternative method for producing Rh-105 and Lu-177, and the results were compared with those obtained with the electron linear accelerator. All the radioisotopes except for Lu-177 were produced efficiently by the electron linear accelerator. Electron linear accelerators were thus demonstrated to show the desired performance for the on-demand production of medical radioisotopes at consuming places such as hospitals.
