The production of radionuclides for positron emission tomography through future laser-accelerated proton beams is an interesting perspective. We evaluated the production yields that can be expected according to a new source term based on three-dimensional particle-in-cell (PIC) simulations of the laser available at ELI-Beamlines interacting with an innovative cryogenic hydrogen target. Results indicate that 370 MBq activity can be reached within a few minutes of irradiation for the four conventional PET nuclides 18F, 11C, 13N and 15O, and for several heavier positron emitters, such as 60Cu, 62Cu, 63Zn, 68Ga and 73Se, currently used in pre-clinical and clinical studies.
