Consensus nomenclature rules for radiopharmaceutical chemistry – setting the record straight
Over recent years, within the community of radiopharmaceutical sciences, there has been an increased incidence of incorrect usage of established scientific terms and conventions, and even the emergence of ‘self-invented’ terms. In order to address these concerns, an international Working Group on ‘Nomenclature in Radiopharmaceutical Chemistry and related areas’ was established in 2015 to achieve clarification of terms and to generate consensus on the utilisation of a standardised nomenclature pertinent to the field.

Radiopharmaceutical courses offered by members, include:

• Radiochemistry Area of ​​the Faculty of Chemistry

• University of Alberta

• ETH Post-Grad Radiopharmacy Course

• Imperial College, London, UK

• Kings College, University of London, UK
