ROSATOM signed the contracts for supply of medical isotopes to Armenia and Kazakhstan

Isotope JSC (included into Rusatom Healthcare JSC Division) signed new contracts for supply of technetium-99m generators GT-5K to Armenia and germanium-68/ gallium-68 generators to Kazakhstan. The first lot of technetium-99m generators GT-5K was delivered to Isotope Production Center CJSC in Yerevan, the sixth medical institution in Armenia using the Russian radioisotopic products of ROSATOM, at the end of February. Technetium-99m generators GT-5K are used for diagnostics of oncological, cardiological, neuroendocrinal and other diseases in the course of “single-photon emission computerized tomography” (SPECT). Technetium-99m is the most requested isotope in nuclear medicine and over 80% of diagnostics procedures are based on it.
