Cyclone® KIUBE is produced by IBA.

IBA is the world leader for the supply of PET & SPECT cyclotrons from 18 Mev to 70 MeV for radiopharmaceuticals production.

 

Cyclone® KIUBE is a fixed-energy cyclotron that accelerates negative ions up to 18 MeV and that hosts two proton sources.

​

Designed to deliver, Cyclone® KIUBE offers the highest production capacity ever reached with a PET cyclotron. It will be able to produce up to 300 FDG doses in a 2-hour run.

Designed forever, Cyclone® KIUBE is upgradable like no other cyclotron, so you can increase your production capacity. A full range of Nirta® targets is available giving you access to 18F, 13N, 15O, 11C (CO2 & CH4), 18F2, 68Ga.

Designed for you, Cyclone® KIUBE is also available with a self-shielding option. 

​

The most cost-effective

 It has been demonstrated that 18 MeV is the optimal proton energy for the highest production yield of most of PET radioisotopes. Your production capacity is optimized so as your revenue; your center footprint is kept to a reasonable size so as to your investment. This means that 18 MeV is the most cost-effective solution for your isotope production. The growing demand for radioisotopes means a greater need for efficiency. Cyclone® KIUBE saves enriched water and has the lowest power consumption per Curie produced, yet is the most powerful of the market.

​

The most performant cyclotron

 Cyclone®KIUBE offers unmatched production capacity for an internal source PET cyclotron. A 2-hours dual beam run could generate up to 30 Ci of 18F.

​

Maximum reliability

Its unique twin-proton sources give maximum reliability, as switching to the second source during operation is simple, fast and completely automated, translating into more than 99% source uptime. Moreover, the production is optimized in real time thanks to the automatic tuning of the ion source, stripper and magnetic field.
