In 2001 a small group left the PET/Cyclotron facilities at Case Western Reserve University and built a new cyclotron facility in the suburbs of Cleveland that housed two companies. CycloTech was dedicated to the production and distribution, in full regulatory compliance, of F-18 fluoroglucose to the nascent PET scanning industry in a 5-state area. 3D Imaging was dedicated to pushing the frontiers of radiopharmaceutical chemistry and imaging technology to label and investigate new drugs and imaging probes for drug development research.

After five years of growth, in 2006 CycloTech and the cyclotron were sold. 3D Imaging closed its doors while key staff reformed as a new company with a brand-new facility and cyclotron as 3D Imaging Drug Design and Development in Little Rock, Arkansas in 2007. The company was dedicated to research, doing no routine clinical tracers at all. At inception we provided C-11 and F-18 custom tracers to our academic and Government clients and performed sponsored custom radiolabeling and imaging studies for drug development. We developed a proprietary solid target system and added production and sales of I-124 and Zr-89 for labeling. We also use them to produce custom-labeled radiopharmaceuticals and for contract manufacturing of radiopharmaceuticals for FDA-approved uses.

From 2012 to the present 3D Imaging has expanded our product offerings and distribution range. We have incorporated full GMP production for contract manufacturing and passed FDA inspection for our ANDA-approved products. Our products are shipped daily throughout the United States and Canada. International shipments to Asia and Europe are possible.

In 2018 3D Imaging moved to a new 10,000 sq ft building and association with Arkansas' CARTI CARTI with additional space and functionality devoted to GMP manufacturing.

In 2022 3D Imaging broke ground for a 4,000 sq ft expansion of that building to house a second cyclotron and GMP production spaces.


The goals of 3D Imaging remain as always: to bring our exceptional experience and innovative abilities to bear on the development of new radiopharmaceuticals and new techniques devoted to drug development and the advancement of health care.

3D Imaging continues to grow and looks forward to an exciting and productive future.
