One radioactive isotope used in positron emission tomography (PET) medical imaging is fluorine-18 (F).
Fluorine-18 decays by emitting a positron (β+\beta^+β+) to form oxygen (O).
Complete the following nuclear equation by writing the correct numbers in the box.
918F→0000O++10β {}_{9}^{18}\text{F} \rightarrow \boxed{\phantom{{}_{00}^{00}}}\text{O} + {}_{+1}^{0}\beta 918F→0000O++10β
