Ameriphysics was the first decontamination and decommissioning company to become specifically licensed to disassemble, remove, and relocate cyclotrons.

Why is this important? Because the challenges presented by cyclotron removal projects are unique. Packaging, transportation, and dispositioning of these machines and wastes generated during their removal are similarly complex. Our license and the procedures upon which it is based reflect a commitment to this market and distinguish us from our competitors.

Ameriphysics personnel have planned, managed, and successfully completed various removals including two Siemens (PETNet/CTI) RDS-112s, a Scanditronix MC-40, a Scanditronix MC-17, a Cyclotron Corporation CS-22, a GE PETtrace, a Sumitomo PV-750, and several small linear accelerators.

In addition to removal and decommissioning, we provide a variety of operational health-physics support services for cyclotrons and radiopharmacies. Ameriphysics has successfully built programs for these sites from the ground up, and we can assist you with licensing and registrations, decommissioning funding plans, shielding design, audits, waste characterization, and procedure development.
