<p>Twenty-five reactions for efficient production of six emerging radionuclides for medical imaging and co-production of relevant radionuclidic impurities were selected and evaluated: ⁶⁸Ga (by protons on Zn targets) and ^66,67Ga impurities, ⁷¹As and ⁷⁴As on Ge targets, ⁷²Se from ⁷⁵As targets, ^117,119Sb from Sn targets and ¹²²Sb impurity, ¹⁹¹Pt on Ir and Pt targets, ²⁰³Pb and impurities on ²⁰⁵Tl targets. Moreover, fourteen reactions for co-produced radionuclidic impurities of the medical radionuclides with recommended cross sections already available in the IAEA database are evaluated, too. The reference isotopes are: ^44,44mSc (protons on Ca targets), ⁵²Mn (protons on Cr), ⁵⁵Co (protons and deuterons on Ni and Fe), ⁸⁶Y protons on Sr targets. Sets of experimental data were selected for the Padé fit providing recommended values. Only the nuclear reactions with at least two independent experimental data sets in a wider overlapping energy region were considered for further processing. Integral production yields were deduced from the recommended data. Data were compared with TALYS-code predictions.</p>
