Reimagining nuclear materials for the future of medicine
Nuclear medicine has come a long way since Henri Becquerel first observed the penetrating energy of radioactive materials in 1896. Today, technetium-99m alone is used in more than 40 million diagnostic procedures every year—from cardiovascular imaging and bone scans to cancer detection—making it the undisputed workhorse of nuclear medicine. That single statistic tells you something important: An enormous portion of modern diagnostic medicine rests on a surprisingly narrow foundation, one built around a small number of aging research reactors that were never originally designed for continuous isotope production.
Since the magazine accepted its first advertising in 1960, nearly 40,000 ad pages have been purchased. Join the hundreds of nuclear-related vendors and organizations who make our magazine part of their annual business development strategy.
The magazine reports on the latest developments in the nuclear community, a large part of which concerns nuclear energy – in particular, the hundreds of units that are in operation or forthcoming around the world. Articles discuss plant operations, maintenance and security; policy and legislation; international developments; waste management and fuel; and business and contract award news. Also covered are research and nonpower applications of nuclear science and technology, including nuclear medicine, food irradiation, and space nuclear applications. In addition, the popular ANS News, which contains information for and about ANS members, has been incorporated into the monthly magazine.
