''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 ...'

''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 ...'

''International Isotopes Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: INIS) announces financial results for the second quarter and six-months ended June 30, 2011. Revenue for the three-month period ended June 30, 2011, was $2,614,744, as compared to $1,485,293 for the ...'

''This Special Report from Business Monitor International examines the global supply of Molybdenum- 99, looking at the likelihood of price rises and the implications of investment. Molybdenum-99 is a radioisotope primarily produced from the nuclear ...'

''International Isotopes Inc. (OTC Bulletin Board: INIS) announces the Company has formed a new joint venture business on a 50-50 ownership basis with RadQual LLC, and has acquired the assets of Technology Imaging Services Inc. (TIS). TIS had been a major ...'

''A U.S. company has received the first batch of medical isotopes made from low-grade uranium instead of weapons-grade material, a shift that could help cut the threat of nuclear proliferation, the National Nuclear Security Administration said on ...'

''Russian engineers negotiate with European countries and China for making cyclotrons, aimed at producing isotopes. Researchers promise not to forget about Russia as well. Engineers negotiate with China, Czech Republic and Slovakia, however ...'

''Nuclear reactors don't just create energy; a few also create medical isotopes vital to medical tests that doctors have come to rely on. The Radiological Society of North America estimates at least 80% of the nearly 20 million nuclear medicine ...'
