Jamie has always known what he wants in his life. Being raised and conditioned from a young age, all he has ever known is his father's expectations and standards of him. To be successful and to live by a peaceful and simple way of things. The one thing he didn't want, is to spend summer with his mother, which in an unexpected turn of events led him to the bay area of San Diego. Far away from home, Jamie begins to learn about the world outside of his own sheltered one when he meets Sam, and how cruel, dark and unfair life really can be when he finds himself being faced with challenges he never thought came with it.Trigger warnings: contains themes of alcohol abuse, drug abuse, sexual abuse, violence, eating disorders and suicide. Not suitable for audiences below the ages of 18.

Radiochemical methodology constitutes the most important base for the successful functioning of a PET group in the routine production and development of radiopharmaceuticals. Of the several hundred products which have been labelled with positron emitters during the past two decades about 35 are presently considered to be of major interest. The time for a state-of-the-art review is right, since this field has advanced over the past fifteen years to reach a level where guidelines can now be suggested. Chapters of this book deal with each of the main methodological aspects of the chemistry needed to develop an effective radiopharmaceutical, namely radionuclide production, automation and metabolite analysis. A further chapter on QA/QC is written by a broadly-based expert group and is meant to provide a guideline and a base for future monographs and regulations on major PET radiopharmaceuticals of today. This book will help the increasing numbers of scientists who are now entering the field of PET to appreciate the methodological aspects that are normally addressed by chemists in relation to PET radiopharmaceuticals; it provides many useful practical guidelines and will promote early success in their own endeavours, since these will often necessarily begin by establishing chemical methodology of the kind discussed here.
