FESTSCHRIFT The Institute of Nuclear Medicine 50 Years

Abstract

It is only fitting to acknowledge here the important contribution the CBRC has made to the further development of the Institute. Perhaps the single most important contribution was the support given to the funding of our Radiochemistry facility, now housed within UCL Chemistry. This is described in the relevant section of this book. Further support was given by the CBRC in its first quinquennial program. We outline below the last 2 years of the outcome of our CBRC program, as part of the Imaging Theme which our staff led in the first 5 years of the CBRC.
