From the June 2017 issue of HealthCare Business News magazine
The radiopharmaceutical industry is full of passionate individuals focused on improving patient care. I believe that through continued investment in research through public and private organizations, along with government grants, we’ll continue to see new developments that will grow our industry. The IDEAS study is a great example of financial investment from both industry and government to advance diagnosis and treatment.

TO: We continue to be optimistic about therapeutic radiopharmaceuticals in the drug development pipeline. The unique aspects of radioisotopes, combined with new pharmaceuticals, make this a cutting-edge area that will truly improve patient care.
