More Information
Summary:The invention, in one characterization, may be said to be directed to an alignment adapter that may be utilized in radioisotope elution procedures. In some embodiments, the alignment adaptor may be utilized to at least assist in aligning various components of an elution system. For example, in some embodiments, the alignment adaptor may be utilized to at least generally assist in aligning an aperture defined in a lid of the elution system and an elution needle of a radioisotope generator. In some embodiments, the alignment adaptor may be utilized to at least generally assist in aligning an elution assembly (e.g., elution shield housing an eluate vial) and an elution needle of a radioisotope generator. Further, in some embodiments, the alignment adaptor may be utilized to at least generally assist in aligning an eluant container (e.g., bottle of eluant) and a needle of a radioisotope generator.
