9. Name at least five (5) common positron emission tomography (PET) radionuclides used in medicine, noting their approximate administered activities and half-lives. Are these pure positron emitters in other words, does beta-minus decay compete with positron decay for any of them, or are the gamma emissions from nuclear de-excitations)? If not, what else is emitted as a result of the decay? If some of them are pure positron emitters, explain how they can still be located within the body.
