Abstract

A system for manufacturing radionuclide generators includes an enclosure defining a radioactive environment. The enclosure includes radiation shielding to prevent radiation within the radioactive environment from moving to an exterior of the enclosure. The system also includes a barcode positioned on an object within the enclosure and a scanning system for scanning the barcode. The scanning system includes a camera on the exterior of the enclosure, a mirror, and a conduit extending through a wall of the enclosure for light to travel between the camera and the mirror.
