内容記述 |
Targeted alpha therapy (TAT) using short-lived radionuclides like ²¹¹At demands rapid and quantitative analysis of both activity and chemical forms across a wide dynamic range. However, existing imaging systems such as imaging plates (IPs) or standard CMOS-based setups suffer from significant noise accumulation and demand long measurement times, particularly under low-activity conditions. We report on the development of NuS-AGS, a low-background alpha imaging system using a CMOS sensor with hardware-level dark current suppression. Compared to a conventional CMOS camera, NuS-AGS exhibited ~97% suppression of dark signal accumulation up to 200 seconds without the need for post-processing subtraction. The system achieved 148 μm spatial resolution, excellent linearity (R² = 0.996) for 1.10–6.60 kBq of 211At, and stable half-life measurements consistent with ²¹¹At. Moreover, it resolved three chemical species of ²¹¹At using thin-layer chromatography within 10 minutes, significantly outperforming IPs (2.8% of measurement time). These results demonstrate that NuS-AGS enables high-sensitivity, low-background alpha imaging suitable for both radiochemical research and clinical quality control workflows. |
