Abstract

We present the use of microfluidic devices fabricated from a plastic scintillator, in combination with miniaturised silicon photomultipliers (SiPM), for the detection of positron-emitting [18F]fluoride towards micro-HPLC detection that will form part of an integrated miniaturised quality control (QC) platform for radiopharmaceutical testing.
