Isotopes are big business. In a nutshell this is what you MUST KNOW about ISOTOPES!
Isotopes are important in medicine for:
- Diagnosis,
- Treatment, and
- Research.
Over twelve million nuclear medicine procedures are performed each year in the United States and they all require the use of isotopes.
Roughly one-third of all patients admitted to U.S. hospitals undergo at least one medical procedure that employs the use of medical isotopes.
Imaging Internal Organs
Diagnostic radioisotopes are used for imaging internal organs.
Radioisotopes reveals organ function and structure.
This provides data for a more accurate diagnosis and early detection of abnormalities.
Therapeutic isotopes have proven effective in treating cancer and other illnesses by cell-directed localized radiation therapy.
This substantially reduces the adverse side effects of chemotherapy or radiation.
Current medical applications involve the diagnosis and treatment of three major disease classes:
- Cancer,
- Vascular Disease
- Arthritis.
Government projections indicate the growth rate in medical isotope use will be significant over the next 20 years.
- The US diagnostic radio pharmaceuticals market is expected to grow between 7% – 14% and range from $2.7 billion to $18.7 billion by 2020.
- The therapeutic radio pharmaceutical market is expected to grow between 7% – 16% and range from $244 million to $1.11 billion by 2020.
- Industry analysts project an aggressive growth predicting revenues at the high end of the federal estimates.
