Chris Wagner: The role of Eden Radioisotopes in the future of nuclear medicine
Chris Wagner has more than 40 years of experience in nuclear medicine, beginning as a clinical practitioner before moving into leadership roles at companies like Mallinckrodt (now Curium) and Nordion. His knowledge of both the clinical and the manufacturing sides of nuclear medicine laid the groundwork for helping to found Eden Radioisotopes, a start-up venture that intends to make diagnostic and therapeutic raw material medical isotopes like molybdenum-99 and lutetium-177.

T retention and its depth profile in the graphite tiles used for first wall of JT-60U have been measured by a tritium imaging plate technique and a full combustion method. T was found only limited depth beneath the plasma facing surface and little in both the surface region shallow than 1 m and in bulk more than 1mm in depth. Although most of T produced by DD reactions are thermalized and neutralized in plasma and impinge on the plasma facing surface and penetrate into the inner surface, they are isotopically replaced by subsequently incoming D. Only some of high energy T escaping from plasma are directly implanted beneath the surface and retained escaping from the isotopic replacement until attainment of a saturation concentration.
