Generator

A technetium generator is like a refillable water dispenser bottle but for nuclear medicine. It safely contains molybdenum-99, a radioactive material that produces technetium-99m, a crucial isotope for diagnostic imaging.

Hospitals and clinics use the generator to extract small doses of technetium-99m for procedures like cancer detection. Once depleted, the generator is sent back to the production facility to be refilled and reused, ensuring a continuous and efficient supply chain for life-saving medical applications.
