Radioactive isotopes are used in nuclear medicine to image, diagnose, and treat. Likewise, x-rays are used in both diagnosis and treatment. Both x-ray machines and radioisotopes are potentially hazardous to patients and medical workers and need careful monitoring.

Radiopharmacies are increasing with new and innovative treatments utilizing isotopes. Hospital populations are among the most vulnerable to radiation leaks or outside intrusions.

US Nuclear Corp provides equipment and instrumentation to protect these vulnerable populations; patients, caregivers, employees, and students.
