The aim of the work. Сalculating the price of a dose of Fludeoxyglucose (FDG) to justify the cost of providing a positron emission tomography (PET).
Materials and Methods. The cost method and the method of establishing prices based on the tangible value of the goods were used in this study.
Results and Discussion. While studying the pharmaceutical market of Ukraine for the production of radiopharmaceuticals used for diagnostics of malignant neoplasms with PET, it became necessary to estimate the price per one dose of the radiopharmaceutical «Fludeoxyglucose 18F solution for injections» to justify the cost of providing PET research services.
Conclusions. The proposed method for calculating the price of a single FDG dose is based on a combination of the cost method and the method of establishing the price based on the tangible value of the product. The cost of FDG production was calculated with the cost method. The cost of medical services for PET research should be calculated using the method of establishing prices based on the tangible value of the goods. The price of one dose of the diagnostic drug «Fludeoxyglucose 18F solution for injections» is determined by using the proposed technique.References
