THE existence of α-manganese phases in the zirconium–technetium, niobium–technetium and molybdenum–technetium systems was recently reported by V. B. Compton et al. 1. During the course of our ...

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 Lawrence, ...

Millions of medical imaging procedures each year rely on radioactive technetium. One of its radioisotopes decays quickly and is useful as a tracer material in nuclear medicine. But another, technetium ...

− Collaboration enables integrating technology expertise to provide Tc-99m Generation Systems (TCM Generation Systems) that utilize non-uranium based Mo-99 produced using electron beam accelerators − ...

The medical isotope metastable technetium 99 emits gamma rays that physicians heavily rely upon to examine how organs such as hearts, lungs, and kidneys function. Technetium 99 is so beneficial to the ...

McAfee, J. G., Fueger, C. F., Stern, H. S., Wagner, H. N., and Migita, T., J. Nucl. Med., 5, 811 (1964).

About 85 percent of all diagnostic nuclear medical procedures, amounting to 30 million procedures a year, utilize technetium 99, a metastable medical isotope. This is the decay product of molybdenum ...

Nuclear chemists and nuclear physicists at the University of Cologne provide experimental proof of a long-suspected atomic decay pathway. The article published in ‘Physical Review’ shows that ...
