Automatic dispenser for radiopharmaceutical syringes
Streamline your radiopharmaceutical syringe preparation with precise filling, accurate calibration, and secure dispensing, all while minimizing operator exposure to radiation. Ideal for environments demanding seamless integration and high throughput in dose management.

Dispenses and Calibrates Radiopharmaceutical Syringes
The ALTHEA PC from Comecer is a modular system designed to automate the filling and calibration of radiopharmaceutical syringes, primarily for use in hospital pharmacies and nuclear medicine departments. What sets this system apart is its ability to significantly reduce radiation exposure for operators while ensuring precise dose calibration. The ALTHEA PC seamlessly integrates downstream in your existing production line, directly connecting to synthesis modules or drawing from mother vials in shielded containers. It features a touch screen interface for both the hot cell and dispensing system, and automatic pressure adjustments for optimal operation. Applications include the preparation of FDG doses and customized calibrated syringes using physiological solutions when necessary. With its built-in dose calibrator available in 2 Ci or 20 Ci versions, the system supports continuous operation, contributing to efficient workflow in radiopharmaceutical processing. The equipment complies with GMP standards and offers configurations for both 5 ml and 10 ml syringes with mechanical adjustments. Enhanced by airtight radioactive fluid connections and DOP test features, it ensures contamination-free operations and aligns with safety regulations.
