Goldfish were exposed to radioactive isotope $^{18}F$, which is used for positron emission tomography (PET). $^{18}F$ is created when the oxygen in water combines with hydrogen on exposure to positrons accelerated by a cyclotron. The temporal change in intestine contractility was measured by physiograph after the exposure to $^{18}F$. The distance between the goldfish and 580 mCi of $^{18}F$ was approximately 4 cm and the exposure was for 4 hrs. The absorption level calculated from the distance, exposure time, and half-life of $^{18}F$ was approximately 2 Gy. The contractile activity of goldfish intestine was lowest on the first day and increased gradually to 100% of the control level by a period of between 5 and 36 days.
