The need for medical isotopes used in modern diagnostic imaging is ever increasing. And, concerns about an adequate supply to diagnose heart disease and cancer, and to perform other important medical applications are compelling.
BWX Technologies, Inc. (BWXT) seeks to meet the demand for critical diagnostic imaging radionuclides, combining our innovative resources with strategic relationships.
Our entrance into the radiopharmaceutical industry began with the announcement of our patent-pending technology for producing molybdenum-99. To better support this technology, we acquired Sotera Health’s Nordion medical isotope business – a leading global manufacturer and supplier of critical medical isotopes and radiopharmaceuticals for research, diagnostic and therapeutic uses.
This strategic acquisition added 40 years of industry experience and a world-class product line to our existing capabilities and intellectual property. With BWXT at the forefront of medical isotope and radiopharmaceutical production, the high-level service and commitment previously provided to our customer base remains the same.
BWXT relies on innovation and infrastructure to create new products. Our agreement with Bruce Power enables collaboration for the development of future medical isotope products.
As we progress toward developing and commercializing new products, we invite you to learn more about our breakthrough medical isotope technology and current product lines:
