We're about halfway through Nuclear Medicine Week! Let's keep it rolling by introducing you to Chris. He appreciates that nuclear medicine isn't a guessing game, it's precise and personalized. We couldn't do this without you, Chris! #NuclearMedicineWeek #NuclearMedicine

The antipodeans Sir Ernest Rutherford "father of nuclear physics" and Sir Mark Oliphant, "Opposer of the fission bomb" were the first experimental demonstrators of nuclear fusion. Why then are the Australian Government and the Federal Opposition not working to get it developed in Australia and bring it back home? New Zealand has, so why not Australia? Interesting articles about Nuclear and I know you haven't looked at Fusion. So let's look at the nuclear or Fission option versus Fusion 1. Fission (Nuclear) Not able to be licenced. https://lnkd.in/gbm2t5uU 2. Authorities have the power to grant licenses for fusion, which is not explicitly covered by the Nuclear Act or the ARPANSA definition. https://lnkd.in/gjKFABpy The above ARPANSA link defines nuclear as fission—no mention of Fusion. 3. A fission (Nuclear)reactor without fissile fuel is a building. 4. A fusion reactor without fissile fuel is a fusion reactor building 5, Fissile (Nuclear) fuel availability and the future cost is a concern, especially for economists and users Dittmar, M. (2011). The End of Cheap Uranium. ArXiv. /abs/1106.3617 Even the UN has identified this, so why does the Fission(Nuclear) industry persist in denying its death like fossil fuels https://lnkd.in/gze5rwpr 6. Should the focus in Australia be on nuclear fission advancement or the promotion of fusion technology? 7, Fission (Nuclear) is only at present in 39 countries out of 189. 8. Is Dutton doing a Menzies and wanting a loophole to get fission (Nuclear) weapons to start with for the subs? 9. Australia still has no high-level radiation waste storage facility 10. Helion Fusion has committed to having its fusion version working in 2028 11. The FIA (Fusion Industry Association) has postulated that commercial power fusion will be available in the 2030s. 12. In its fusion conference report in 2023, the IAEA postulated that all International nuclear (Fission) Laws like the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty do not consider fusion, so it seems it can be built in Australia now. 13. Fusion is also being developed "Small Modular Fusion Reactors" like Zap Energy and Avalanche Energy. 14. HB11 and the UNSW Tokamak project have positioned Australia prominently in the trillion-dollar international fusion industry. Instead of relying on fission with a limited lifetime, wouldn't it be preferable to support Australian renewables, batteries, and hydrogen energy generators and back them up with a fusion power plant? This would eliminate the traditional waste problem while still providing medical isotopes and advancements in medical technology like MRIs. Let's focus on creating a sustainable future for Australia instead of perpetuating pollution and leading to an energy crisis. https://lnkd.in/ekakyifA

In the United States, heart disease is the number one killer of men and women. But advances in nuclear medicine could change that. In episode 10, see how nuclear medicine is transforming heart health. Now streaming: https://lnkd.in/gp3BfZwU #nuclearmedicine #career #careergoals

Krystle Glasgow, MIS, CNMT, NMTCB (CT), NMAA is an incredibly talented and intelligent educator who has contributed immensely to the growing field of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging. She has found her passion and is making the world a better place. #nuclearmedicine #molecularimaging

I am incredibly proud to see my son following in my footsteps as a nuclear medicine scientist. He truly is my mini me. Choosing the nuclear medicine field is a decision that will resonate for generations to come, especially with the advancements in Theranostics. The impact of our work extends beyond today, shaping the future of healthcare and improving lives. Viva Nuclear Medicine! #theranostics #molecularimaging #nuclearmedicine #precisionmedicine #CNMT

It is a great pleasure to share with all of you this article. It has been a great experience to discuss with my friends and colleagues of Nuclear Medicine about #teranostic and #education. https://lnkd.in/eXcRm9y4

"Unlocking the mysteries of nuclear medicine at this seminar! Delving into the realm of gamma imaging and its powerful role in diagnosing and studying the human body. So grateful for the opportunity to expand my knowledge in this field! 🌟👩⚕️ #NuclearMedicine #GammaImaging #Radioisoptopes #SeminarVibes"
