A cyclotron machine moves particles at a very high speed. The primary advantage of utilizing the cyclotron as opposed to acquiring the isotopes for the medical applications is expanded productivity in the treatment. This is because of the way that isotopes have short life; when the isotope will achieve its goal half of the life will be used. Cyclotron contains a magnet and high electrical voltage, which quickens charged ... Read more

Medical cyclotron is type of particle accelerator used in diagnosis and treatment of chronic disease such as cancer, cardiovascular disease, and others. Cyclotron comprises a magnet and high electrical voltage, which accelerates charged particles in a spiral motion. The particles collides with a target to produce radioactive isotope due to nuclear reaction. Therefore, medical cyclotron can also be termed as an isotope producing machine.
These isotopes are further combined with ... Read more
