How V5 maps to your floor

Five steps from receive to release — with the regulator on the hook at the end.

A day in the life

From login to release — no end-of-shift paperwork.

What the auditor receives
The record assembles itself as the operator works — no end-of-shift paperwork project.

21 CFR 212 / NRCCOMPLIANT· CONDITIONAL RELEASE· DECAY-CORRECTED
TRACE IT. TRUST IT.
  1. T-zero·step 01
    Calibrate to T0

    Activity calibrated to the reference time — every later step decays from this anchor with A(t)=A0·e^(−λt).

  2. T+15·step 02
    Synthesis

    Cyclotron / synthesiser captures yield + activity. Operator has decay-corrected display, never raw counts.

  3. T+45·step 03
    QC + sterility

    Conditional release: shipment goes out before sterility result, then retroactive sign-off when sterility completes.

    21 CFR 212.70(d)
  4. T+60·step 04
    Unit-dose dispense

    Each patient dose dispensed at calibration time. Activity at administration is the dispense activity decayed forward.

  5. T+24h·step 05
    Retroactive sterility sig

    When the sterility test reads negative, the conditional release is finalised. Record locks. If positive → recall protocol fires.

Speaking your language

The terms your auditor uses

V5's UI uses these names for radiopharma workspaces — no cross-industry jargon to translate.
PET
Positron Emission Tomography — imaging using positron-emitting radiopharmaceuticals (e.g. 18F-FDG).
Half-life
Time for activity to decay to 50%. Drives the entire production + dispense schedule.
Conditional release
Shipping the lot before sterility completes (212.70(d)) — sterility result attaches retroactively.
T0 / calibration time
Reference time the activity is reported at — every dose is decayed from this anchor.
Becquerel / Curie
Units of activity. 1 Ci = 3.7×10¹⁰ Bq.
Hot cell
Shielded enclosure where radiopharmaceutical compounding happens.
What keeps you up at night

Sound familiar? We built this for you.

!

Decay correction lives in spreadsheets — every batch a manual re-calc, every transcription a deviation waiting to happen.

!

PET conditional release per 212.70(d) is paper-based; sterility close-out lags the dose by hours and never ties cleanly back to the batch.

!

Patient unit-dose dispense records (activity at injection time, syringe ID, calibration time) are reconstructed after the fact.

!

Survey, wipe-test, TLD, and decay-in-storage waste logs sit in three different binders and four different systems.

!

NRC / state license inspections turn into a week of re-assembly because no system carries the license number through to the records.

How Radiopharma teams use V5

The workflows you'd expect to see on day one.

Not a generic feature list — these are the specific radiopharma workflows V5 ships configured for, ready to run on your batches.

Isotope intake & A₀ capture

Isotope, activity at calibration, half-life, and manifest data captured at receive.

Real-time decay correction

A(t) = A₀·e^(−λt) computed live for every dose — at dispense, ship, and patient calib time.

Unit-dose dispensing

Per-patient dose, calibration time, and operator e-sig — short half-life products handled by the system, not the spreadsheet.

Conditional QC release

Radiochemical purity, endotoxin, and sterility tracked with conditional release per 21 CFR 212 / Annex 3.

QP / RP release sign-off

Qualified Person / Responsible Pharmacist e-sig with full chain of custody.

Transport index + carrier handoff

TI, package label, and carrier manifest computed from current activity at ship time.

Self-Building Compliance Records

The record assembles itself as the work happens.

No paperwork project at end of shift. No reconstruction at audit time. The evidence IS the workflow.

Built-in isotope master

Pb-212, Ac-225, Lu-177, F-18, Tc-99m, Ga-68, I-131 and more — half-lives, decay modes, default shelf-lives all wired in. Decay correction A(t)=A₀·e^(−λt) at every read, no spreadsheets.

Calibration-time batch record

Every work order carries a calibration datetime. The BMR records activity AT calibration; every later read auto-decays from there.

Conditional release with forced close-out

Per 212.70(d) — release the dose for patient use before sterility testing completes, with a system-enforced retroactive sterility sign-off that ties back to the original batch and operator.

Patient unit-dose dispense

One synthesis, many patient doses. Each dose has its own calibration time, syringe ID, and decay-corrected activity at injection — captured live, signed by the dispenser.

Two-signature batch release

Same 211.186 / 211.188 discipline as conventional pharma — preparer + independent reviewer e-sigs, immutable batch record, snapshot-from-MMR construction.
