Why Nuclear Medicine ?
High technology nuclear imaging and therapy is an investment in health. It reduces the pain of investigation by showing from the outside what is inside. It measures from the outside how the inside works. It enables objective outcome analysis.

Ion Source Cyclotron
The RDS cyclotrons use a Penning Ion Gauge source, known as a PIG, that sits vertically into the top of the main tank. Ion source creates the negatively charged protons. Source sits in a very specific location since the ions must be emitted in a precise location for acceleration
