'A study revealed at the Society of Nuclear Medicine's 59th Annual Meeting provides some hope for those with a malignant brain cancer called glioma.A method of molecular imaging that mimics an essential amino acid in the brain can now gauge whether the ...'

'SCANNING technology has evolved tremendously in recent years and new techniques are increasingly being used around the world. While the traditional CT (computed tomography) scan and MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) shows the structure of an organ, ...'

'However, if you peer closely enough into the atoms, there are subtle differences that can have very big effects. These different atoms, called isotopes, are heavily relied on in areas of medicine and nuclear energy and now researchers have proposed a ...'

'The government of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan has agreed to provide funding for the new Canadian Centre for Nuclear Innovation (CCNI). The new centre will support nuclear research, development and innovation. Saskatchewan's minister ...'

'Toronto's University Health Network has purchased the equipment needed to produce medical imaging isotopes, further reducing the city's reliance on an aging nuclear reactor. Later this year, a particle accelerator called a cyclotron will settle into ...'

'Canadian scientists have developed a method of producing an important medical imaging isotope without a nuclear reactor. The development means shortages of technetium-99, used in about 80 per cent of medical diagnostic imaging procedures — 30 million ...'
