In 2017, we installed and commissioned cyclotron ISOTRACE, the first cyclotron in the Caribbean Islands. This allowed Guadeloupe to produce its own FDG and F-Choline at the Molecular Imaging Center (CIMGUA), granting the local population the possibility to undergo PET scans without having to travel overseas.

Since then, our people and equipment have delivered exceptional reliability and uptime.

In 2020 again, and despite the ongoing pandemic and the challenges it has brought our way, we are proud to have succeeded in 100% of the productions, allowing CIMGUA to treat 2100 patients.
