[ 18 F]PARPi is currently undergoing clinical trials as a PET tracer for many applications. However, only manual radiosynthesis was reported; this has several drawbacks, including an increased risk of contamination from the operator, and the need to limit the starting activity. The automation of the previously reported protocol for [ 18 F]PARPi synthesis is challenging, as it requires transferring microvolumes of reagents, which many platforms cannot accommodate. We report a revised, high yield, and automated protocol for the radiosynthesis of [ 18 F]PARPi, with final doses of over 20 GBq.
