You're facing tight deadlines in quality assurance. How do you uphold standards without sacrificing accuracy?
Yes I agree with Steve Oelsner regarding Radiopharm QC. this is unlike typical pharma QC., The reality of Radiopharm QC testing is that you must do some "long measurement" tests while the product is "in the air" to the patient. I suggest final batch release is prior to administration ie: product is not released until CoA is sent to the hospital. In fact, post-release sterility test has been part of the industry for years (try a 14-day incubation with a 2-3 day half-life, the math doesn't work in micro). This is also what makes parametric so important (a great supporting argument), because the dose is in the patient's body already (hopefully) well in advance of the test method completion. So Radiopharm QC is a different animal.

Dose Calibrator Radiation Measurement Process and Gage R&R
In response to an CAPA, my team and I performed a complete Gage R&R study on the radiation measurement of an interventional medical device. This included DOE, sample measurements, Minitab statistical analysis, report and corrective actions. These actions are in place today and control the accuracy of radiation measurement of a solid form radioactive microsphere.
