(v) Background: The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH), Molecular Imaging Branch (MIB) currently has two GE TracerLab FX N modules for fluorine-18 radiochemistry research, development and production of new radioligands for animal and human studies. One system was replaced with the newer model FX2 N in 2016; the other system is nearly 15 years old and now obsolete - some components are no longer available and the newer model has significant improvements over the current system in functionality.
