Developed by ANSTO’s predecessor the Australian Atomic Energy Commission (known as the AAEC) in the late 1960s, the Technetium-99m Generator revolutionised nuclear medicine imaging in Australia by enabling imaging procedures to be performed not only in major capital cities but throughout regional and rural Australia.

Science and medical experts meet in Adelaide to discuss great potential of particle therapy in Australia

Professor Vanessa Peterson, Senior Principal Research and Neutron Scattering Instrument Scientist and Leader of the Energy Materials Research project, has been awarded the Bob Cheary Award or Excellence in Diffraction Analysis by the Australian X-ray Analytical Association. She is the first female to be chosen for the award.

Biochemical and structural studies to elucidate protein interactions of the new compounds and target molecules included X-ray diffraction at the Australian Synchrotron.

With enhanced submicron spatial resolution, speed and contrast, the Micro-Computed Tomography beamline opens a window on the micron-scale 3D structure of a wide range of samples relevant to many areas of science including life sciences, materials engineering, anthropology, palaeontology and geology. MCT will be able to undertake high-speed and high-throughput studies, as well as provide a range of phase-contrast imaging modalities.

With the screening of the popular HBO series about Chernobyl, we asked our Nuclear Analysis team for their insights on key differences between the reactor in the TV series, a Generation II RBMK power reactor and ANSTO’s state of the art research reactor OPAL.
