We do use small amounts of short-lived radioactive materials in
products that are injected into people to diagnose and treat disease
and in research for new treatments. These products work because
of the unique properties of radioactivity. Our sites are tightly
regulated and operate within strict legal limits for safe discharge.
The health and safety of our employees and the communities in which
we work is our highest priority.
We have decades of experience in operating our sites safely and
we’re continually working on new waste recovery and recycling techniques
that will further reduce our impact on the environment. After all,
we’re in the business of improving health and we won’t take risks
with the health of our neighbours.
