Roundtable Discussion: Decentralised VS Centralised Manufacturing: Isotope Dependent Decisions to Ensure Appropriate Manufacturing Strategy
- Weighing the trade-offs between centralised production hubs for quality control and the logistical challenge of rapid, decentralised distribution to a wider patient base
- Considering how short half-life isotopes like lead-212 drive the need for localised production and affect the balance between decentralisation and centralised control
- Reducing shipping costs, minimising decay-related losses, and enhancing product stability by limiting exposure to radiolysis in decentralised manufacturing models
