In this work, <jats:sup>52<\/jats:sup>MnCl<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> is produced and characterized as a PET tracer in phantoms and in rats.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title><jats:bold>Methods:<\/jats:bold><\/jats:title><jats:p><jats:sup>52<\/jats:sup>MnCl<jats:sub>2<\/jats:sub> was produced by proton irradiation of natural Cr foil and separated by column chromatography. Images were acquired on a Siemens Focus 120 small animal PET scanner. Phantom images were acquired to assess uniformity, resolution, cascade background correction, and count rate linearity.
