Russian "Rosatom" and Thai company "Kinetics Corporation Ltd" will build a Center for the production of radiopharmaceuticals


On September 7, 2017 in Bangkok was signed a contract between JSC Rusatom Healthcare (a subsidiary of Rosatom State Corporation) and Kinetics Corporation Ltd, for the construction and commissioning of a cyclotron-radiochemical complex for the Thai Institute of Nuclear Technology (TINT) of the Kingdom of Thailand.

First of all, the purpose of this center is the development of nuclear medicine in the country. Radionuclides that will be produced in the laboratory will enable Thai doctors to perform highly effective diagnostics and therapy of a wide range of diseases, mainly in the field of oncology and cardiology.

The implementation of this project will increase the availability of nuclear medicine not only for Thailand population, but also for the entire Asian-Pacific region.
