Irradiation of 20L LEU Uranyl Sulfate Solution for Production of Mo-99
- Argonne National Lab. (ANL), Argonne, IL (United States)
Argonne National Laboratory, with support from the National Nuclear Security Administration’s Office of Material Management and Minimization, is assisting SHINE Medical Technologies in the development of accelerator-driven production of 99Mo using low-enriched uranium (LEU). Technetium-99m (99mTc), a daughter of 99Mo, is a workhorse of nuclear medicine, used in approximately 40,000 medical testing procedures each day just in the U.S.
