Upgrade of recommended nuclear cross section data base for production of therapeutic radionuclides

The IAEA Nuclear Data Section has coordinated several actions to setup and improve a database for recommended cross sections and nuclear decay data for various charged-particle reactions that can be used for medical radionuclide production. Some of the earlier evaluations did not provide uncertainties for the recommended cross sections. Updated evaluations with uncertainty quantification for 25 reactions relevant for production of 67 Cu, 103 Pd, 102mg Rh, 114m In, 125 I, 169 Yb, 177g Lu, 186 Re, 192 Ir and 210,211 At therapeutic radioisotopes are presented. Recommended cross-section data and their uncertainties for production of therapeutic radionuclides are available on the Web page of the IAEA Nuclear Data Section at https://nds.iaea.org/radionuclides and also at the IAEA medical portal  https://nds.iaea.org/medportal .
