This photo shows the Berkeley 60-inch cyclotron, build in 1939. The year before, technetium-99 was discovered by Emilio Segrè and Glenn Seaborg using the facility's 37-inch cyclotron. Ernest ...

In this instalment, Tami Freeman highlights how technetium-99m helps to save lives before rapidly ... Tc-99m, the decay product of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99), is the perfect fit for medical imaging. It ...

They will be used for the production of non-uranium based Mo-99, which enables NorthStar’s FDA-approved and commercially available RadioGenix® System (technetium Tc 99m generator) to produce Tc ...

Technetium-99m (99mTc) is used in approximately 85% of diagnostic imaging procedures in nuclear medicine worldwide. Interruptions in the supply of molybdenum (99Mo), which is used to produce 99mTc, ...

Molybdenum 99, the parent radionuclide of Technetium 99, can be produced through a number of methods, although approximately 95% is currently produced through the fission of Uranium 235 neutrons in ...

At the Society of Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging Annual Meeting in June 2019, NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes, LLC discussed domestic Mo-99 manufacturing, expansion plans, and the use of the ...

Ontario Power Generation says its Darlington nuclear plant will become the first large-scale commercial station in the world to produce molybdenum-99, needed to make the isotope technetium-99 for ...
