Description

Sometimes it takes time to put a good idea into practice: magnets are not strong enough, electronics are not fast enough, computers are not powerful enough. The idea’s realization needs the proper technology. This presentation will highlight some examples how technological innovations, in particular in nuclear instrumentation, played a crucial role for advances in physics applications in medicine, in particular for medical imaging and radiation therapy.
