Preparation of fluorine-18 gas from an 11 MeV cyclotron: a target system for the CTI RDS 111 cyclotron

A fully operational 18F-fluorine gas production system for the CTI model RDS 111 cyclotron turret target system is presented. The system design and merger with the existing CTI model RDS 112-style fluorine system and experiments toward the optimization of production parameters will be included.
