IBA launched its new Cyclone® KIUBE at the 2016 SNMMI annual meeting in San Diego, California, United States.

The new 18MeV cyclotron benefits from IBA’s 30 years of experience and innovation. It was developed with these three keywords in mind: Reliability, High Performance and Flexibility.

DESIGNED TO DELIVER

The Cyclone® KIUBE delivers outstanding performances. It is more compact and consumes less power but has the capacity to reach 20 curies of 18F in a two hour run!

With an optimal energy of 18 Mev proton, the Cyclone® KIUBE allows the highest production of most of PET radioisotopes.

DESIGNED FOR EVER

The Cyclone® KIUBE is a true evolutionary cyclotron. This means that production capacity can be increased step-by-step from 100 μA to 150 μA and up to 180 μA on target. With a lower initial investment, hospitals can benefit from the Cyclone® KIUBE’s unique features while maintaining the ability to increase capacity over time.

DESIGNED FOR YOU

The Cyclone® KIUBE’s compact design allows standard shipment while cyclotron ease of access reduces staff exposure. Moreover, it

can fit into any existing cyclotron vault and where space is limited, the Cyclone® KIUBE is available with a self-shielding option.

With a control system in several local languages, IBA makes the Cyclone® KIUBE globally accessible. It is user-friendly, meaning it is easier to train and rotate the operating staff. The software self-tests prior to production and automatically audits after maintenance, allowing for maximum uptime

SUCCESS STORIES

Installation of the first Cyclone® KIUBE

In May the first unit of the Cyclone® KIUBE has been successfully shipped to the University hospital of Brussels (UZ Brussel) in Belgium. The extension of their radiopharmacy is currently in the installation phase.

The second Cyclone® KIUBE already sold

The second Cyclone® KIUBE will be soon installed at Global Medical Solutions in Taiwan. We are happy to welcome them into the IBA user’s community!

A successful relationship

When the time came to replace their IBA cyclotron, IBA was once again San Raffaele Hospital’s first choice. Their new Cyclone® 18 has been successfully rigged in San Raffaele Hospital in Milano, Italy

Another Cyclone®18 Twin ready for production in ChinaHTA Co. Ltd., signed the acceptance of the Cyclone®18 Twin installation in Hengdian, China. This is the fourth project accepted by HTA while a fifth project continues in Wuhan,China.

A Historic Move in MyanmarThe Ministry of Health in Myanmar took a step towards nuclear medicine with the purchase of a cyclotron. This cyclotron is the first of the country and is installed at Yangon General Hospital (YGH).

The Cyclone®18 was rigged in 2015, and FDG can be produced since December 2015. Last April the acceptance was signed and FDG has been injected by the project leaders Prof. Kyin Myint and Prof. War War.

Since installation, the Cyclone® 18 has been running flawlessly. It success is due to the work

of Snow Everest’s engineers and YGH’s technicians and management, together with comprehensive support from IBA.“

Moe Zaw Tun Customer Service Manager at Snow Everest Co., Ltd..

The Cyclone®70 installed at Zevacor Molecular, in Noblesville, has reached its first full beam at full energy. The cyclotron commissioning was completed ahead of schedule, thanks to the excellent site work and help from the IBA team.

The cyclotron reached full beam power (700μA) at full energy only 10 months after delivery of the accelerator. The Cyclone® 70 is now fully operational for radioisotope production. The primary purpose of the cyclotron will be the commercial manufacture of 82Sr, which supplies the 82Sr/82Rb generators used in the diagnosis of cardiovascular disease.

CLOSER TO THE USERS

The Institute of Nuclear Physics will produce traditional SPECT & PET radioisotopes as well as novel research nuclides. This makes it the third IBA cyclotron installed in Kazakhstan!

The center is equipped with 4 beam transport lines, 1 external switching magnet and 3 solid target stations.

IBA USERS REGIONAL WORKSHOP 2016

The second IBA regional workshop, NORTH AMERICA 2016 was held in San Diego just before the SNMMI annual meeting in June. It was once again a real pleasure to meet, to exchange ideas and to share experience with you. Many thanks to all the IBA Cyclone® and Synthera®

users for attending! Another regional workshop for IBA Users from Russia and the CIS countries was held in September.IBA recieved the acceptance test of the Cyclone®30 installed in almaty, Kazakhstan!

The collaboration with IBA on this project has been great from the start. IBA worked closely with our management team to provide the timely information needed to complete this complicated project ahead of schedule by several months. Our expectations have been exceeded in both the technical support and equipment specif ications. We definitely recommend IBA for the supply of high energy cyclotrons.”

IBA CYCLONE® 70 AT ZEVACOR MOLECULAR FULLY OPERATIONAL FOR RADIOISOTOPE PRODUCTION AHEAD OF SCHEDULE

33 months after rigging, the Cyclone® 70 has seen its first internal beam

A track record!

10 months after del ivery, cyclotron commissioning was performed ahead of schedule

21 months after signing, the cyclotron was delivered to Zevacor Molecular.

A successful rigging in Mexico

The 24th of August 2016 was a historic day for the National Cancer Institute of México (INCAN), the Cyclone® 18 was rigged into its vault. The general director of INCAN was among the many people to witness this impressive event.
