Current status and future actions to ensure the reliable supply for molybdenum-99 (99Mo), and a conversation on a new generation of innovative radioisotopes for diagnostics and therapy
The NEA will h...
The use of medical radioisotopes is an important part of modern medical practice. Many millions of patients around the world benefit from nuclear medicine imaging.
NEA/SEN/HLGMR(2019)2
At the request of its member countries, the NEA became involved in global efforts to ensure an economically sustainable secure supply of molybdenum-99/technetium-99m. This final ...
This workbook has been developed to aid reactor and alternative technology operators identify their full costs associated with the provision of irradiation services for 99Mo production. The workbook ...
This document provides guidance to reactor and alternative production technology (e.g., cyclotrons, accelerators) operators on how to undertake full-cost identification and implement full-cost recove...

Déclaration commune sur la sécurité d'approvisionnement en radioisotopes à usage médical
Joint Declaration on the Security of Supply of Medical Radioisotopes
The NEA established the High-level Group on the Security of Supply of Medical Radioisotopes (HLG-MR) in April 2009 to examine the underlying reasons for the global 2009-10 supply shortage and to deve...
Technetium‑99m (Tc‑99m) is the most commonly used radioisotope in nuclear medicine diagnostic scans. It is essential for diagnostic scans of a broad range of body parts, and thus for accurate diagnos...
Avec la construction de centrales nucléaires dans plusieurs pays et des projets de construction additionnels pour répondre à la demande croissante d’électricité, les ressources en uranium, sa product...
The reliable supply of molybdenum-99 (Mo-99) and its decay product, technetium-99m (Tc-99m), is a vital component of modern medical diagnostic practices. Disruptions in the supply chain of these radi...
With several countries currently building nuclear power plants and planning the construction of more to meet long-term increases in electricity demand, uranium resources, production and demand remain...
The OECD Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) convened a workshop on the Security of Supply of Medical Radioisotopes in Paris on 29-30 January 2009. The workshop was initiated at the request of the Government...
Alors que plusieurs pays construisent des centrales nucléaires et que bien d’autres envisagent d’avoir recours à l’énergie nucléaire pour produire l’électricité nécessaire pour faire face à une deman...
With several countries building nuclear power plants and many more considering the use of nuclear power to produce electricity in order to meet rising demand, the uranium industry has become the focu...
Depuis 2001, le prix de l'uranium a été multiplié par plus de cinq, à un rythme inégalé et pour atteindre des niveaux qui n'avaient pas été constatés depuis les années 70. L'industrie de l'uranium a ...
Since 2001 the price of uranium has steadily climbed over five-fold, at a rate and reaching heights not seen since the 1970s. As a result, the uranium industry has seen a surge of activity, ending a ...
Les radioisotopes jouent un rôle de plus en plus important en médecine pour les diagnostics et la thérapie, dans l'industrie et dans la recherche scientifique. Ils peuvent être essentiels pour notre ...
Le "Livre rouge", établi conjointement par l'Agence de l'OCDE pour l'énergie nucléaire et l'Agence internationale de l'énergie atomique, est un ouvrage de référence sur l'uranium faisant autorité au ...
The "Red Book", jointly prepared by the OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and the International Atomic Energy Agency, is a recognised world reference on uranium. This edition, the 20th, presents the results...
Isotopes, radioactive and stable, are used worldwide in various applications related to medical diagnosis or care, industry and scientific research. More than fifty countries have isotope production ...
Radioactive and stable isotopes are used throughout the world and in many sectors, including medicine, industry, agriculture and research. In many applications isotopes have no substitute, and in mos...
