Yup, words like catastrophic are being bandied around among my nuc med colleagues; looks like mid-January before it'll be up again.
Chalk River has, until the last few days, been producing nigh on 70% of some isotopes, since one or more reactors elsewhere in the world were down.
Next year, we are putting in a PET/CT scanner and a cyclotron to 'feed' it - or rather, feed the patients. We'll still be dependant on Chalk River et al for ordinary nuc med however.
