In September, ASNC CEO Kathy Flood spoke to an audience of nuclear medicine leaders, representatives from the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration, and others at a special event marking nearly one year of continuous domestic Mo-99 supply by NorthStar Medical Radioisotopes in Wisconsin.
Ms. Flood's remarks focused on why having “a steady, uninterrupted supply of Mo-99” is essential to ASNC members and the patients they serve. She thanked the NorthStar leaders and employees for their commitment to providing a tool that is fundamental to providing standard-of-care cardiac SPECT testing and achieving ASNC's “mission of improving cardiovascular outcomes through image-guided patient management.”NorthStar maintains headquarters in Beloit, Wis., as well as facilities in Madison, Wis., and Columbia, Mo.
