Technetium-99m (Tc-99m) generator, also known as a "molybdenum/technetium generator", is a device used in nuclear medicine to produce the radiopharmaceutical technetium-99m. Tc-99m is the most commonly used radioactive isotope for diagnostic imaging due to its ideal physical properties, such as a relatively short half-life of about 6 hours and its ability to emit gamma rays that can be easily detected by imaging equipment.
