The Swiss Nuclear Forum has created a dedicated nuclear medicine section bringing together members working improve the framework conditions for nuclear medicine diagnosis and therapy, strengthen the supply of radionuclides and facilitate access to new procedures.

The forum, whose headquarters are in Olten, about 60 km west of Zurich, said the nuclear medicine group includes representatives from the pharmaceutical, medical and scientific fields.

It replaces the Swiss Alliance for Innovation in Nuclear Medicine, whose work it continues, and intends to establish itself as a long-term entity, the forum said.
